How Do I Love Thee, Doritos?

Confession Time.

I'm addicted to Baked Doritos. Completely, unequivocally, obsessively addicted. I want them for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I try to resist them all evening and then I just can't help myself. Even if I'm not really hungry, it's an itch that has to be scratched. When I notice we're getting low, I'll make a special trip to Wal-Mart to buy some more (they have the best price on them there, belive me I've checked) under the guise of needing something else to buy. I even have a special way of eating them: I crunch them up into tiny pieces so it lasts longer. Strange? I don't think so.

But I think my family's on to me and intervention is imminent.

Last night as I settled down with the computer I tried to discreetly munch away, but it wasn't long before Hilton noticed in the next room. Busted.

"Do I smell Doritos?"

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"I think I smell Doritos."

"At least they're baked! It's not like they're the real thing!"

Even the boys know Mommy Has a Problem. When Jake saw me getting stuff together to make dinner the other night, he had it all figured out.

"Mommy, you making Doritos for dinner tonight?"

Step #1: Admitting you have a problem. Check.

  1. You came by this one honestly through the gene pool. But for me it is potato chips. Doritos are nasty.
