Stocking Stuffers demise

Each year I purchase little odds and ends to put in the stocking stuffers at my house. This year there are just four of us, my sweetie and I and then my son and daughter-in-law. I already bought some Christmas goodies (3 plastic tubes full of Reeses cups with a Santa on top for them) and a Lindt Chocolate reindeer (for me) to put in the stockings.
ps I have to buy my own because nobody else will and then Sweetie would feel bad because I didn't get anything, so to save hurt feelings all around, I just buy my own. That's why I have Lindt and they have peanut butter cups!

Last night we ate Sweeties stocking stuffer. Tonight the reindeer died and we ate him too. I have absolutely no control when it comes to chocolate.
Speaking of chocolate reindeer, when I bought this one I thought to myself, thats the same shape as an Easter bunny. It just has a different wrapper. I was wrong. It is very similar but it is slightly different once the gold wrapper came off.

Too bad you have to buy your own stuffers. I would make them feel bad and eat their chocolate.

No kidding, that is too bad you have to buy your own goodies, but like you said, that's why you get the good stuff.

I thought it was a bunny at first too.

That is one sorry looking deer! And it's milk chocolate to boot. Why did you but that and not dark?
