Publix is Trying to Kill Me

Have you looked at the Publix circular this week? The Publix brand ice cream is 2/$5.00. This would be a good thing if I hadn't just bought the Breyers ice cream on the same sale last week. I am displeased. I love ice cream. But, in particular, I love Publix ice cream.

A few months ago, a stock boy, God love him, let me in on a little secret. Publix ice cream is actually made by Breyers. And I thought, well, that explains it. Breyers was my favey. And the Publix brand is just as good, only they have the most kicking ice cream flavors in the whole world, our personal standouts being Lemon Sugar Cookie and Blackberry Cobbler. I am told they also have the only peppermint candy flavor available all year.

Now I am presented with a conundrum. Do I eat my weight in the Breyers that I bought in hopes that we will run out before the end of the sale, or do I admit defeat and wait until next time. The fighter in me badly wants to plant myself in front of the TV and eat ice cream from the Today show through Leno, but alas, it is summer and I still have a few pounds of baby weight to lose. You win this one, Publix.
