July 07, 2002-7:19 p.m. Today, I finally left the family compound and went into the bustling metropolis of Greenville for provisions. As I was walking the aisles searching for the ever so tasty Reduced Fat Wheat Thins, my eyes happened upon a box containing Fudge Mint Covered Oreos�. As if Oreos were not decadently high in fat and calories in and of themselves, now they must be dipped in fudge and not just any fudge but mint-flavored fudge. The stylishly green box denoting the fact that these delicacies were mint-flavored informed the world that the cookies within were not just delicious but also �Great for Entertaining!� �Great for Entertaining� I began to imagine Donna Reed or maybe Mrs. Cleaver stylishly attired in a dress, heels, pearls and an apron offering her guests Fudge Mint Covered Oreos�. Then I segued over to a posh mansion where a maid dressed strikingly similarly to the women above offered the Beverly Hillbillies or perhaps the trucker�s daughter�s family a silver platter with Fudge Mint Covered Oreos� arranged artfully on a paper doily. The possibilities are endless. Perhaps Julia Roberts served Fudge Mint Covered Oreos� to her white linen clad wedding guests. No doubt the White House brings out the Fudge Mint Covered Oreos� for those visiting heads of state. Yeah, yeah. I know. I really should get out more. **Disclaimer: All characters in this diary are fictional.
