Nips Chocolate Parfait Supply Restored

My husband has a sweet tooth. He loves candy and cookies. One of his favorite candy's is Nips chocolate parfait. We used to pick them up at Walgreens and CVS, but for the last couple of years, I have been ordering packages in bulk through Amazon. When he tells me the supply is getting low, that means serious business. So I ordered two packs of the stuff and the box arrived last week. Each box had twelve packages of Nips in it - totaling 24 boxes. It's one thing to get the order, but quite another to find the space to store it all. It was funny to see my husband on the ladder so he could reach the top shelf above the refrigerator. We still had a few boxes left, so this replenished the supply for some time to come. But that isn't the only thing I need to order in bulk. We also get jars of Bali's best chocolate candy, and Werther's caramel brand at the grocery store. And then there are all the cookies. Luckily all of the sugar hasn't affected his glucose levels. He obviously needs the stuff to survive. And it just makes him all the more sweeter.

Nips From Amazon - In the Nick of Time!

My husband loves cookies and candy. So much so, that I have ordered cases of Lu cinnamon cookies that we can no longer find at the grocery store through Amazon. So every few months I need to check  in with him about his candy and cookie supplies because I'm not sure where he keeps it all stashed. This month I have been really busy painting digital art portraits for Christmas gifts and haven't had a lot of time to do the things I normally would do - like checking on the candy supply. It was on my things to do list, but I just hadn't gotten around to it. So the other day my husband asked when I was going to order his Nips candy. Luckily I was just about to do it! It ended up being just in time! His supply literally ran out yesterday - but the two huge boxes of replacements arrived on the same day from Amazon. Whew! That was a close call. My husband doesn't ask for much - I need to pay better attention. But at least I had a good excuse?
