Dirtyhip Posted January 20, 2019 Share #1 Posted January 20, 2019 My Mother is sweet. She loves to give people things. Her generosity is almost as attractive as her quick wit and comedic personality. She is a wonderful person. This being said, she will not stop sending me hot cocoa mix from Godiva. Don't get me wrong. It's tasty stuff. But, I would have to drink hot cocoa every day for a year, and I still would have cocoa left, We had a pyramid of cocoa in the panty. I got a notification. It was from Fed Ex. They were sending me a package. I didn't remember buying anything new. When I got home, there it was. A box on the porch, soaked by rain...from Godiva. I opened the box hoping for maybe a box of their pretty chocolate. Nope. It contained 12 canisters with gold print. RICH HOT COCOA MIX. I left the box in the sunroom. Didn't even unpack it. This is how hoarding begins. The shipment isn't even unpacked all the way. In a hope to get on top of the cocoa, we have even started baking with it. We made a cocoa cake recently, with cocoa icing. You'll all read about us soon. Death by hot cocoa toxicity. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or give out a pkg. for Hallowe'en when neighbour parents come with their children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He laughed and said "That are ya havin a lotion party and you are serving nuts? Oh yeah...gimme some more pecans and rub that lotion on....ohhhhh." ? <groan> 5 minutes ago, shootingstar said: Maybe you should give some to neighbours with children for their birthday party.

KrAzY Posted January 20, 2019 Share #7 Posted January 20, 2019 Well... You should start giving it away as wedding, bar mitzvah, birthday, anniversary, and other gifts. You could also drop a few pallet loads off at a local homeless shelter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
