If I were going to diet, this would be why...

I found a not so little treat in our candy bowl this evening. As Laura and I walked in the door I heard a slight rustle and saw movement out of the corner of my eye. I realized that it was coming from the candy bowl on the counter, and the creater of this noise had antennas-- long ones. It was a monsterous beetle like thing. We both stood a good 6 feet from the bowl while we mused over what to do with it. Solution: slap a cutting board on top of the bowl, carry it outside, dump it all upside down, step away, and then return with a flashlight to ensure that just the candy goes back into the bowl. A few minutes later Laura says "So, do you want a Resses?" Uh, no, not tonight anyway.
