Delicious and 1 F Jef

Would it be a sin to put 1 F Jef and Hostess in the same sentence? Just asking..........

It's been announced that a long icon of this world, Hostess, is or has or will be closing their doors.  I'm sad.  Very sad.  I grew up with Twinkies, Cupcakes, Ho Ho's, Sno Balls...........to not have them around anymore is like having no 1 F to see or hear.  Tragedy.   To not have that sweet, goodness, all decked out scrumptiousness,  layered with oodles of good stuff (hmmmm who could I possibly be comparing Hostess too!!!!).........ready to peel the layers off if you so choose, is like taking away my laptop, smartphone, and the internet.  I've grown used to these decadent treats and it's going to be hard  not seeing them around on store shelves.  I have a weakness for Hostess Sno Balls.  Not everyone's favorite, but they are mine. What passes on your lips, goes straight to the hips. Punishment for that fond sweet stuff that is not part of the food group of good things to eat.

 If I have so say so long to the Hostess brand, fine.....it's been a real pleasure to have known you.  My hips will forever be grateful.  But I will be sad.  You brought me happiness in my lunch box growing up.  It was a treat to have you there waiting for me.  You were my craving while pregnant with my first child.  You continued to be there for me so I could teach my children how to peel the Sno Ball and get more out of it's goodness.  How to take apart the Twinkie and run their fingers down the creamy center and lick their fingers.  You were there for me when I discovered everything cost more in Hawaii.  Way back when.............you cost only $.15 (you are reading that right...fifteen cents).  Hawaii, you were $.30.  Double of what I paid for you in the inland states.  I didn't care.  When I needed my fix, I paid the price.  I'm headed out to pick up my last Sno Ball, one last Twinkie.....I will always remember you.

I am now officially making 1 F Jef my Sno Ball, my Twinkie..............He's all the sweet deliciousness that makes my heart smile.  Now, if I could just clone and package him.  I am saying so long to one tasty weakness, and continuing on with another weakness that is equally tasty, and heartwarming.  The biggest bonus, it's fat-free.  So 1 F Jef, keep the smile going, your eyes shining brightly...................you are one sweet treat.
