Coffee Crisp Cravings

So, in a moment of weakness the other day, I emailed Nestle about releasing the greatest candy bar ever made in the US. They emailed me back with the following:

August 20, 2003

Dear Mr. Lipkin,

Thank you for contacting us about Nestlé Coffee Crisp.

Coffee Crisp, a product of Nestlé Canada, is available through a special
broker, Del Mar International, to
consumers in the United States. Although it is not currently available in
retail stores, you may place an
order by the case directly from the broker by calling toll-free
1-800-278-6253.

We appreciate your interest in our products.

Sincerely,
Jennifer Meininger
Consumer Response Representative




So yay! The best candy bar is available in the States! Woohoo! I'll have to place an order sometime soon.

Now to get working on the Aero. If I ever get another free minute here.

Elayna updates

shadesong has a good update on Elayna over here. To add/reiterate some things:

First, on top of everything else, while walking back from Karate the other night, Elayna revealed that she's taking Spanish twice a week! I'm psyched, as I really want her learning a language, and the sooner, the better.

Second, as mentioned in shadesong's post, if you shop at Kroger or Publix or collect Box Tops for education (available on Betty Crocker and other products), you can help Elayna's school! Email me (don't comment in LJ!) at Yendi (at) livejournal.com if you want to help out (I'll send you one of the cards to use at Publix/Kroger, or our address for Box Tops).

Third, um, I just had free Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream (since it's free, there are no calories). Which has nothing to do with Elayna, but I just had to say it.

Fourth, her new hairstyle of choice is to take her ponytail holder and slide it all the way down to the end of the ponytail. I've explained to her that, although my statement that she's beautiful no matter what she does with her hair is still true, I still wouldn't be responsible for putting her on the bus looking like that.
