Today on my way home from work I stopped in at the Lindt store to get myself a little pick me up and they gave me a white chocolate truffle sample. I knew just who would appreciate this little luxury. After dinner we went outside for a walk -- kid, scooter, pooch, and me. The trouble with going out in the evening is that there is no graceful way to convince Sam that it's time to come back in the house so tonight as we neared the house I mentioned that I had a "special treat" for him in the house. He was sufficiently intrigued that he entered the house happily and willingly. And apparently the treat was worth it but I think he may have misunderstood what I said in a very charming way.
As I put him to bed he told me that he liked the "special sweet." And then he asked me for another "special sweet." I suspect he'll be asking for yet another at some point tomorrow morning. And all day tomorrow. And the next day.
Hey, if he's going to eat candy, he may as well enjoy the good stuff!
Note to self: Do not allow Sam to eat a dozen Lindt truffles in one sitting as we have personal experience with the results of such an event due to an unfortunate unintentional experiment by Sam's cousin one Christmas. Let's just say that the hall and bathroom were decorated in a most pungent way.

The question is ....
how many Lindt Truffles equal the amount(s) of
Easter candy you doled out for bfast and all day long to sugar-fy young Sam and effectively keep him wired all day long?
It may be cheaper to buy Lindt...as you said with the good stuff if he's going to eat it.
Think of it as a math problem:
2 Lindt Truffles = Easter Breakfast easter candy.
AND there's no toys or a bike to put together.
A WIN-WIN situation and of course you get the goods when you go into to buy the Lindt "for Sam" of course, not for you. ha
