Uh-Oh! We Have Competition!

It seems that after I posted my pictures of the EasterSnakey Basket that slymongoose sent me a while back, this lit an anti-procrastination fire under bramblekite who had also found a (different style of) snake-themed Easter basket and had just been meaning to send it. It arrived two days ago and I just now got the chance to put batteries in the camera and take a picture.

It arrived full of goodies just like the other one. Thanks EvilE and Mongi, for making my March and April more fun.

Sugar-Free Gummi Bears! Who'd-a thunk? <insert fnarging¹ sounds here>

1. On TIM, whenever Kaa eats something, he does one of three things (or a combination of all three): gulps it down with much smacking of lips and crunching of bones, slurps it down with much smacking of lips and horrible glugging noises, or gulps it down with much smacking of lips and fnarging of cartilage. I would argue that "fnarging" is as good a description of the (fictional) sound of continually chomping down on something with the texture of cartilage (or gummi bears) as you're likely to find. This led Groot (or maybe haloumi) to dub me Master of Unusual Onomatopoeia™. It's a badge I wear with honor.

Did you have an opportunity to experience sugar-free peeps this year? I have it on good authority that they suck - but I am able to enjoy the "real" kind (um, yea, cuz those are sooo much more authentic and natural) so I haven't the incentive to try them.

I did, however, accidentally buy a sugar-free, 75% off, white chocolate bunny a few days ago. It was a tad chalky, but tasted OK - and I suffered no ill effects.

Even the "real" peeps are nasty as far as I'm concerned. I was once young and naïve enough to think that I'd never utter the words "too sweet," but as it turns out, some things actually are. Peeps are one of those things.

So trying the sugar-free ones pretty much never entered my mind.
