That Tiramisu Gelato.

The correct answer to

"How could you eat the entire quart in three days, Mom!"

is, of course,

"I USED a spoon, honey!"

Inertia. Last week I slept in the cab of my truck for eight hours. The truck was parked
in my driveway, a mere 20' from the front door. My wife and I share the household
chores. When it's my turn to do the dishes, I stare at them. For extended periods of time. My hope is that during the extended period of time, my wife will forget whose turn it is, and do them for me.

And that is why they are guilty pleasures. :twisted:

Uncertain if this technically qualifies as a guilty pleasure, but...


I have on occasion called out 'sick' from work just so I could finish a book I was really into.
