ADDICT

Do you have a favorite Little Debbie snack ? I love Oatmeal Cream Pies . Second to that is Swiss Cake Rolls . Growing up , my mom was a big fan of equal treatment . Each of the 4 kids had their own Tupperware container ( mine was the yellow one ; do you remember those Tupperwares from the 80 ’ s ?). Each week my mom would go grocery shopping and buy various prepackaged treats for us , which would be equally divided and placed into our color-coded Tupperware . We had the freedom to eat those desserts ( with permission ) either slowly by rationing them out or inhale the whole container at once ; but once it was empty , there was no refill until her next trip to the store . Fair enough , right ?
