Dear Golden Oreo Cookies,

Don't tell your sister, Original Oreo, but you are my favorite. I'll always choose you first in the grocery aisle. I'll buy you when I'm hungry, and even when I'm not, because you are pleasing to me.

Before we met, just the other day, I had no idea you would outshine Original Oreo. You're the perfect companion to coffee or milk--or coffee and milk. You're sweet vanilla delicious. You're subtle, you're classy, you're my favorite color, and you never leave that tell tale chocolate residue in my teeth or the corners of my mouth-- like your all too popular sister. She's the Paris Hilton of Oreos. You are the Grace Kelly.

But what I adore most about you, Golden Grace Kelly Oreo, is that no one in this house can prove that I ate an entire row of cookies for breakfast. There is no evidence. I can blame the kids.



In fact. I did.

Yours in a sugar high,

LBea

I may just have to buy them to try 1 but I fear I may not be able to eat just one. And since I'm not supposed to eat them at all (wheat) that would be bad. Enjoy another row for me. :)

I like the ones with lemon creme in them.

Not sure if Oreo makes those of if I'm buying the store brand, but yum. I love lemon.

Speaking of lemon. Or lime (I'm changing the subject).... I just tried the Limited Batch edition of Ben & Jerry's Key Lime Pie ice cream. Wow. Go get some.

I've been passing these by in the store with lots of success...now this!

You are the devil aren't you!

C2 said...

Did you know they have Double Stuf Golden Oreos? LOVE!! :-D

sula said...

I haven't tried them yet. And I generally can't buy cookies to keep in the house because DF is not much of a sweets eater and that means I will down the whole package myself if left to my own devices. heh.

mmm, coooookies!

And the mother of the year award goes to....lisabea!! **polite clapping from audience**

I do this all the time. And I don't limit it to golden oreos. You can wash the chocolate residue off, you know.

Word Ver.: chuggbo; as in "Chuggbo those golden oreos, gal pal."

Tracy~OH NOES! The dread Wheat Allergy. I really shouldn't have another one. No. No thank you.

(ok,maybe just one)

Christine~*Key Lime Ice Cream? 0_o
You are an evil temptress.

Rosie~No. Christine is the devil. *see above

C2~ I bought some. Man. I need CONTROL.

Sula~Oh. You know you want it. YOU KNOW YOU DO. Although, wait until after the wedding. :) SOON!!

Sam~My mother of the year shelf is full of trophies!!!! Thank you. Thank you.

Total aside, but where the heck have you been, young lady?

Christine said...

Not just Key Lime Ice Cream... Key Lime Pie Ice Cream. Those chunks of shortbread crust are key.

Heh. Pun intended. :P

I love the Golden Oreos. I use to eat all the vanilla sandwich cookies in the girl guide box and leave the chocolate ones alone. Now it's girl guide cookie drive time all the time for meeee, thanks to Golden Oreos!!

A few years ago I visited Key West. Unless you're a beach person (I'm not) there's not much to do except drink and eat. On the drink suject, I discovered pina coladas. I'd had them before and never been impressed, but the ones at the Hyatt were heavenly. Then I discovered their key lime pie. That was practically my whole diet for the time I was there. Total pig out. Came home woozy from sugar but very relaxed.
