so sweet...

 My spouse and I are easily led astray by each other.  For example, we had every intention of taking our one mile walk as usual but it rained hard overnight, and everything looked pretty soggy outside this morning, so we assured each other that it was ok to skip it today.  Later in the day we stopped at the alteration shop (he to pick up, me to drop off) and after we got back in the car, convinced each other that it had turned into a beautiful day and we should celebrate (no, not by taking a walk) by going to the Amish bakery.  While there we convinced each other that we really needed caramel nut cinnamon rolls and cinnamon swirl bread, fresh out of the oven.  Since we were on that side of town, we obviously had to swing by Schmucker's Farm Market and buy some cheese, ears of corn and tomatoes.  Those were our good-for-us purchases of the day.  As we were leaving the market, my spouse remembered that he had a two-for-one coupon for Nothing Bundt Cakes that was about to expire, so naturally he wanted to go there and pick up two Bundtlets.  I did not discourage him.  If you haven't tried these cream cheese frosted delicacies, you really should.  If you have tried them, you'll understand why we were pleased to learn that we will be eligible for the same two-for-one deal next month.  But just to reassure you, we have not blown up like baby blimps.  We shared one carrot cake bundtlet for dessert this evening and all of the other treats are waiting for tomorrow and the next day and the next day.  The anticipation will make it easier to get up and take our walk tomorrow morning, unless, of course, it rains again.
