see's

James got me See's Candies for Valentine's Day!! I have really missed the Nuts and Chews that we used to get from Brad for Christmas every year. Don't get me wrong, Nauvoo Fudge is really good, but there is just one See's Candies.

The last time James was traveling I had him search the airport for See's...to no avail. The Denver airport is not a source for these delicacies.

So when James got home from a little shopping this morning and handed me flowers and chocolates, I half-heartedly looked at the box, thinking I'd see Godiva or Russell Stover (gasp) or some other inferior chocolate. This red heart-shaped box was none other than SEE'S!!

I don't know where he got these, but he scored some major brownie points with me. Now if I could just eat them. Spacers have done a number on my gums and I am so sore. It's just going to get worse next week, so I'd better get busy eating! I also have to grab my favorites before the kids catch wind that we have See's in the house...especially Eliza!

Shhh....I'm off to savor these now.

Oh, congratulations to James for scoring big time. And to Valerie for getting one last hurrah in before all the no-no's are in force. Happy Valentine's Day to you all!

Way to go James! That's one thing we really miss being away from the Northwest - especially around the holidays.

Jon gave me a box of See's too. Confession: I ate it all already, myself...no help.

YUM! Sees are definitely the best.

I hope your head is feeling okay after getting all those brackets attached to your teeth today! How are the braces? How are you feeling?
