Double Stuff Oreos. I do not share them and I keep having to find a new hiding place because my (very tall) 11 year old can find them anywhere.

i just bought a box of see's chocolates from ollie for his school fundraiser and totally hoarded them! i think i would have killed someone if they would have taken my favorite: dark chocolate with marshmallow and caramel filling.

He looks more like his brother every day! Just adorable. And Jack would probably prefer tough. So tough too! :)

Mine are the See's Candies Milk Chocolate Bordeauxs. They're a heavenly blend of brown sugar and butter cream. I don't get them very often and when I do they immediately go into my bedroom where I then proceed to consume in private. I'm not great at sharing, especially the good stuff!

My youngest is 22 mos. and just as loud as he is greedy for whatever I've got. He

Those dark chocolate pomegranate things from Costco. Holy cow. Currently live above my oven behind sheet pans.

2009-12-14T12:57:22.914-07:00

How's this for ya? Maple syrup. The real, $20/32 oz, straight from the tree grade A pure maple syrup. The fam gets Mrs. Butterworth, they don't even know about the true goodness they are missing. Its too expensive to waste on those who don't care. I'm allergic to chocolate & hate gummy candies so maple is my crack.

Ferrero Rocher truffles, Lindt truffles AND Ghirardelli Chocolates (the ones that are peppermint, and dark chocolate w/ rasberries filling) Oh my! I keep them in my car's gloves comparment... Just for me, (five) kiddos! :)

2009-12-14T12:06:30.840-07:00

So I'm not crazy or strange? (Wait, don't answer that...) My husband thinks it is incredibly bizarre that my mom and I like to hide treats. Psh. Seriously? And hiding means that I have to put it somewhere so high I can barely reach it because my kids are into stacking chairs these days and climbing them.

My favorite things to hide?

Soda (Sprite Zero)

I'm a hider. I recently polished off the snack size snickers that I confiscated from the rest of the crumb snatchers. you can eat so many more when they're tiny. :) I usually don't buy treats if I can help it, because it always ends the same way. the kids get a couple, and then they are mine.....alllll MIIIIINE!

so anyway, I love when I have to resort to hiding

I hide all treats. Does that make me selfish? YES. And I'm okay with that.

I try and hide treats but they are found too quick by my stealthy children. My little boy's name is Van also and he has the same white/blond hair and mischievous smile. Must go with the name:)

lindt truffles are totally my weakness. i was with child last christmas, feeling like crap, and only ate 2! the entire holiday season. i'm really sad about it, so i'm totally making up for it this year.

I hide treats from my husband all the time. But he always seems to find them. I think he has a sixth sense.

My mother also hid Lindt truffles in her sock and underpants drawer. When I was a kid, my father often flew to Europe on business and brought back Lindt. Sadly, few times did my mother share. I have to admit though, that I also hide chocolate from Husband. No kids yet, but I am certain they will not be privy to my choco stash.
