joy in the simple things

I love sour patch kids.  Santa knows this, which is why there were some single-serve packs of sour patch kids in my stocking for Christmas this year.  :o)

I'm not a fan of the orange ones, though.  In fact, most of the orange ones I encounter get tossed in the trash.  What a waste, I know, I know... But I'd rather not waste the sugar or few calories on something I don't really enjoy.  (This excuse sounded more plausible in my head.  :o)

My favorite flavors happen to be green and yellow, with a greater emphasis on the green.  Imagine my excitement when I opened up a pack this afternoon and found this:

Ignoring the fact that the small packs only come with 5 kids in them, what a great-looking handful of sour patch kids!  Not an orange one in sight!  lol  It must so way be my lucky day!
