This is the best time of year, the time of year that Reese's Eggs come out! Somehow, some way, the people that bring us the delicious Reese's Peanut Butter Cups decided to make them even better. Yes, that's right, the eggs are as close to the perfect candy is as possible. Here are some of the reasons:
1. The peanut butter to chocolate ratio has been perfected. The Cups actually have too much chocolate and/or too little peanut butter. The eggs are perfectly balanced.
2. You don't have to deal with the stupid cardboard under the wrapper and then unwrap the cupcake wrapper thing that the Cups are supposedly "baked" in. You can get right to the good stuff right under the wrapper.
3. I guess I really just had 2 reasons.
The Eggs are so much better though, just go try one after you eat a "Cup." The fact that I am disposed to high blood sugar would not stop me from eating an entire bag or whatever of these delicious, delectable eggs.
Let me try and paint a picture in your head on how good these taste. Close your eyes and...wait, STOP! I need you to keep reading this. Alright, cover your eyes like you would for hide and seek when you were a kid, peaking the whole time. Now think about the first time you jumped on a trampoline. The feeling of flying and the goofy feeling in your stomach. For those that have not jumped on a trampoline, go do it. Then eat a Reese's Egg. The first time you jump on a trampoline, all you can do is laugh and keep on doing it. You don't want to stop and really have no reason to, just like eating all the Eggs you want to.
I'll leave this post with the two questions I've been puzzling over for the past couple of years. Why don't they make the Reese's Egg year around? Also, are you breaking the law if you drive past those road signs that say "Do Not Pass"?

How to argue with a 3 year old...
There is no right or wrong way to try and argue with a 3 year old. I can speak from experience that logic has not quite formed at this age yet. Come to think of it, after 28 years my logic is still lacking according to my wife. Anyway, to argue with a 3 year old is like trying to look at a cover of a Yanni album without laughing, it just cannot be done.
It’s comparable to playing a game made up on the playground when you were in grade school. A game would be made and as the game went on, more and more rules got added on to make things more favorable for the rule makers. Kind of sounds like the government right now doesn’t it? Ever seen Big Daddy with Adam Sandler, similar to the game the boy makes up called, “I Win.”
Getting back to the advice with how to argue with your 3 year old, or someone else’s for that matter. The fact is that you can’t argue with them, just tell them what to do. I think that’s most of the problem with society, people try giving them a voice in arguments when they don’t know any better and just need to be told what to do.
One of my favorite South Park episodes was when all the parents of the kids were putting them on Ritalin to treat them for A.D.D. Someone brought in a revolutionary new treatment for A.D.D. without the use of medication. The video proceeded to show a demonstration of the techniques where 3 kids were all over the place sitting at their desks. The teacher went up to the first kid and smacked him yelling, “Sit down and study!” The kid stopped and paid attention. He did the same to the second kid. By the time he got to the third kid, the kid had settled down without needing any “treatment.” What a concept!
So the final thought on arguing with a 3 year old is just to tell them what to do, if they get upset or cry, who cares. They need discipline if they are doing something wrong. Just like my lovely wife points out everything I do wrong, which is just about everything. ;) Love ya honey!
