HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!
We have avoided sending out cheap crap with some TV or movie character on them to S's class

So, the people who only know me online get used to my rants and liberal use of the word "crap" when it comes to junk food. Twice today on a board I frequent people made jokes about me judging them for discussing eating / giving their kids crap food. OK, so I am building a reputation. I feel like Julia Child when she said (I am paraphrasing) that everyone thinks she eats quail eggs constantly, but every now and then she is in a hurry and drives through for a burger.
Case in point: My sons are fighting over S's Valentine's Day candy as I type. My 2 year old Z asked me to open up Fun Dip for him. Fun Dip! (I didn't let him have it. I may throw it away if S doesn't eat it in a few days.) I haven't eaten that since I was in college, and my hair was purple at the time, if that was any indication of my judgment.
S's new favorite candy is Pixy Stix. Someone gave this
So, point is, yes, I complain, but I am a hypocrite. I value healthy food, but I know what it's like to have a sweet tooth, or to have kids who get handed crap at school once a week for one reason or another.
Don't worry, no judgment here. I don't hate the player, I hate the game.

oh no you didn't diss fun dip! i loves me the fun dip, and i ain't got no purple hair.
OK, I admit it. When I snatched it from Z's hands, I briefly....BRIEFLY thought of opening it and eating it. Luckily I have some tasty chocolate here to help me fight the urge....
