If It's Going to be, It's Going to be Minis

I don't really have a sweet tooth anymore these days. Maybe it was because when I was a kid, I ate sugary things like they were going out of style. When I was a kid, I'd eat anything sweet I could. Brownies, 3Musketeers, peanut butter cups, Fudgsicles, vanilla ice cream with chocolate syrup poured over it. Even a bit into my navy days, I used to love to buy boxes of mini Nutter Butter cookies and could almost eat the entire box of them. Little Debbie Nutty Bars were another nemesis that got constantly devoured. Oh, and let's not forget those Wonder Hostess pies. Blueberry and cherry were my favorite, with blueberry taking first fiddle. Speaking of pies, I loved cheesecake. And I was a sucker for a good peach cobbler too. And then there was gooey butter cake, which was another favorite of mine. Breakfast favorites included French toast coated with powdered sugar. It was all good eats. But again, I think I overdid it and then something just changed, and now I really don't fancy much sweet at all. I do like Reese's peanut butter cups, though, and every once in a blue moon I get a hankering for some, and 9 times out of 10 if it is something sweet I am craving, I reach for those. But not the regular sized cups. I actually prefer the miniature ones. For whatever reason, it just seems like it's a better, more perfect balance of peanut butter and chocolate in the mini ones than the larger ones. It's still rare I have them, but I have to admit when I do finally get a craving, I always eat way more of them than I probably should. But sometimes certain pains are worth it, you know.
