Sometimes I get TOO excited over food....

See this photo of a piece of candy? Somebody put them in our boxes at work taped to Christmas cards.
Looks tasty, doesn't it?

As I stood chatting with a colleague that morning, I opened the candy (it's about two inches wide) and as it appeared to be sort of a soft peppermint, thought I'd have a nibble.

Now, do you see the WICK and the tooth mark (about the middle of the photo) where I tried to take said nibble?

Thank goodness it was too big to put in my mouth all at once.

Clearly, I need to pay more attention to what I attempt to eat.
