John said that in years down the road I get to sit around, eat bonbons and read books while he goes to work.
OK, that’s not exactly what he said.
It was more to the effect of, “Just think you are putting in all your time with the kids now, and it’s hard, and I wouldn’t want to do it. But all this time will pay off when they are older, down the road I’ll still be working and you’ll be done.” He was trying to cheer me up after a rough day. It worked. I asked if he would please write that down so we could refer to it at a later date. He declined, and said he would never own up to such a comment once the girls are off to school or out of the house.
So I’m just saying, for the record, John said I can sit around and eat bonbons and read books while he goes to work.
That is what I heard, and I wouldn’t lie about something that important!
*What are bonbons anyway? Would I want to eat them while I read?*

I read somewhere that bon bons are some sort of chocolate with fun middles like peanut butter, coconut, fudge, carmel. I found a recipe on All Recipes.com

in high school we used to have to sell bon-bons for fundraising. they are a french candy, that i think is kind of considered hoighty toighty?
I make Peanut Butter Bon Bons at Chrisltmas time. I could eat them while I read all day. Do you want the recipe for future use?
Definitely Jenny! Now that I’ve had such helpful friends fill me in on what exactly they are I can’t wait ’till they feature on my daily schedule!
