My name is Katy, and I'm a Reese's Peanut Butter Egg addict

Oh Easter, how I love and loathe thee. I love all the delicious candy and chocolate that I only have access once a year to. And I loathe, well, all the delicious candy and chocolate that I only have access once a year to.

#1 on my list? Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Eggs.

Now, I love me some Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and there isn't really anything I'd choose to eat over them. However, enter the Reese's PB Egg: more chocolate, and more PEANUT BUTTER (I may or may not have an unhealthy obsession with peanut butter in general). I have a particular way of eating them that luckily Bexar has learned to accept but garners a few stares from people not familiar with my process.



Start with a brand new, oh-so-yummy Reese's Egg

First: Eat off all the chocolate on the edges of the egg.


Next: Nibble off the top

Then: Scrape off as much of the chocolate on the bottom of the egg as you can with your teeth.


Voila! Nothin but peanut butter.


Now eat slowly and relish the deliciousness that is the inside of the Reese's Peanut Butter Egg.

I tend to have an impulse control issue, and, for lack of a better term, an obsession issue; when I get into something, I get INTO it. That goes for hobbies, TV shows, and  yes, food. So when Easter time comes around and I finally have access to the Reese's eggs that I have to wait all year long for, I kinda go overboard. Case in point:
Oh yeah, I also love those Cadbury Mini Eggs, *drool*
These are just the wrappers from yesterday and today. And I'm not gonna lie, I'm just waiting for dinner to be done so I can eat a few more. The only hope for my waistline is for all the leftover Easter candy to be wiped off the shelves and out of my reach ASAP.

So like I said, my name is Katy. And I'm a Reese's Peanut Butter Egg addict.

What's your addiction?
