Yesterday I splurged and bought a box of Häagen-Dazs Salted Caramel Ice Cream Bars when I did a quick Target run. Which just sounded so good I couldn’t resist. By the way, when did a “Box” of ice cream bars become just THREE bars?! Anyway, so that everyone else would know that those were Mama’s I bought a box of Drumsticks too.
Tonight I went into the freezer to indulge in that tasty salted Caramel bar and the whole box was GONE!!
Where on Earth did it go? I went to the freezer in the garage thinking maybe I put it out there. Nope. No such luck.
Did I, with my classic Momnesia, misplace the box? I started looking in the cabinets and pantry. Nothing.
Then my thoughts lingered to that boy little monster that lives in my house right now. My 4 year old.
I ask him nicely, “Did you take a box out of the freezer?”
“No…” (look of mischief, easily mistaken for innocence.)
I go back to searching for the box. No luck.
So I head into the monster’s bedroom. In the closet I find my box of Häagen-Dazs, not even cold anymore. Next to the box I find an open package and little melted pieces of chocolate on the floor.
I cringe. My overly priced ice cream bars (that I didn’t have a coupon for…) were devoured by my 4 year old or melted in the box. So much for my treat…
Then I glance across the room and find the toy box with yes, ANOTHER ice cream bar stolen from the freezer and melted… a Drumstick.
WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN!?! My mind drifts to my Girls morning out with my daughter this morning… we got our nails done (have to prep for the Brave premiere!).
Someone please SAVE me. Boys are definitely a whole other ball park than girls. My 5 year old daughter is conniving and occasionally feisty but my goodness, nothing has prepared me for the disaster that is my four year old right now. He is so dang cute but such a monster!
If your first child was your Second child people would only have ONE child. Nobody believes it until they are in it.
I am with you. Mine take the form of 4-year old twin boys. Yikes. Go get another Haagen Daas and, this time, hide it under the broccoli in the freezer. You deserve it!!
Yes a while back I noticed the “milk chocolate” coating on the vanilla ice cream bars tastes more like dark chocolate. It’s definitely not milk chocolate anymore. what the heck are they doing. apparently they changed owners? they suck now. The vanilla ice cream is not as good either.
