Would it be possible to send me some? :bow:

Yup! But it might be a while. I don't get to visit Square One often. :puppydog:

I was watching the music trivia quiz show Spicks & Specks last night, on it they revealed that Elvis used to eat 2 Fools Gold sandwiches at 10PM every night. So, what's a Fool's Gold Sandwich?

"An entire loaf of bread is warmed and then hollowed out. The sandwich is generously spread with peanut butter and an equally thick layer of jelly. Finally, lean bacon has to be cooked, at least a pound fried to crispness, to fill the remaining belly of the loaf. The massive loaf is then downed while the bacon is still hot."

And you wonder if Elvis is still alive? If I could stomach it, I reckon 1/4 of one would fil me up for a week :bleh:

They also said Elvis' daily calorie intake around the time of his death was around 94000 - roughly twice that of an adult elephant.

This is part of most of his biographies. It's no surprise in his later years he really let himself go. He had a lot of health problems because of his eating habits.

So he was actually quite thin - he was only the size of a baby elephant when he died.

technically he was a roast suckling elephant...but that's not important.

That's fine. :) I'm not in a rush for any snacks because someone is sending me a bunch of chocolate soon. :victory:

Today I went to Broke Da Mouth Bakery and bought a few cookies: oatmeal raisin, chocolate macnut, and chocolate biscotti. I'm planning on sending the biscotti to a friend, but I wish I bought some for myself since they were really tasty. Maybe I'll go back another time. Also wish I bought a pie or cake because they're really delicious:

That's what I thought but I thought I'd verify before saying that I have LUFF macadamia nuts!

I hate macadamia nuts. :bleh:

I've never had them besides in a cookie, so I can't tell ya otherwise. I love them in cookies.

Mind you, today I opted for Peanut butter and chunky chip cookies. :good:
