I have ...My secret stash isn't all that secret. I have a bowl of chocolate that sits on our counter in the kitchen. Currently, it is full of Kit-Kats, which I can't eat (damn wheat), but usually it has kisses or something else small and yummy and the adults grab from it as we go through the kitchen. And then ... outright lie to the kids if they ask what we're eating. <br /><br />That bowl is also part of one of my favorite "Daddy's home" rituals. Which is, when Mike gets home from work, he gets a hug and a kiss from each of the girls and then they have a piece of chocolate while I finish up dinner. They all love it. Mike gets some "Welcome Home" affection and the girls get a piece of chocolate. Yum!<br /><br />Right now, since I can't eat the Kit-Kats, I have been maintaining a stash of peanut butter cups that sometimes are lunch. I find that I can almost always ignore candy if it is around. I get into an "Out Of Sight/Out of Mind" mentality and ... just forget it's there.A.
