The Creme Egg Debacle
Tashny passed me my favourite little egg shaped delights last night, Cadbury Creme Eggs. They don’t have them all year round, as it’s very much a festive Easter sweetie, so naturally, I was delighted. Because I hoard these suckers.
Anyways, I brought the Creme Eggs to office to share with everyone. People must know my little joys!
But before passing it around, I was crouched on the floor in front of Benjamin’s table arranging the creme eggs into an egg shape to post on my tumblr, ‘cos I am a bit OCD like that. I was intently arranging the eggs, and I didn’t notice my Head, Sarah, had come to ask me a question, and the whole office was looking at her looking at me crouched and trying to arrange the eggs that keep running away. I notice she’s there obviously, so I try to look down and not look at her, while desperately focusing on getting all the damn eggs into my hands.
But there were too many eggs for my little hands, and I kept dropping them. By the time I got up, embarrassed, the entire office was laughing so hard, tears were streaming from everyones face.
-_-
But, the highlight of the creme egg debacle was when Benjamin finally tasted one and said to me in hushed tones of reverence, “I have recovered my faith with these eggs.”
