They're BELLY Flops, Karen!

Over the weekend, we acquired four two-pounds bags of Jelly Belly seconds, packaged as Belly Flops (very clever). There's nothing wrong with the taste, but the shapes are very irregular. I took one bag to work today and filled the candy dish in our office. Needless to say, they were a big hit with the staff...maybe even better than chocolate. Karen just couldn't get the name right; she was calling them Jelly Flops, and we kept correcting her. She's pictured below with "one" that was actually about six clumped together. When I mentioned that I would use this picture as blog material, Brenda made a comment about Marcia's picture on my blog (the one with the orange wig - see 11/17 post). Everyone wanted to see it, so we brought up my blog and all howled with laughter...except Marcia. She was mortified. (I just know I mentioned that little detail to her when I took the picture.) And as Dan stated to Marcia, "It's your own fault for wearing the wig." Marcia told me this reminded her of the I Love Lucy episode where Lucy and Ethel sing the friendship song while ripping each other's dresses to shreds. "Where is the love?" she asked me. I told Kim that anyone can pirate that picture with a right click of the mouse...it's sooo easy. I caught wind of a little secret before I left work...that picture of Marcia is now the wallpaper on the executive director's computer, unbeknownst to him. Ha! I wish I could be there tomorrow to witness that reaction!
