re: Just wondering! Wife Swap & HCW

Her landlord evicted her and I helped her pack some of her belongings. Thing was, it was all already packed. But, because some of it belonged to her mother who had passed away only a few months before, she wanted to sort through it. Among the beauties I found were two 30-gallon Rubbermaid totes jammed packed with candy and baked goods...including one pack of cookies with the store tag dated for three years prior. The smell of rancid chocolate was overpowering when I lifted the lid. Do you know what got tossed from those two totes? The 3-year-old cookies...that's all. I'm looking forward to seeing this episode of Wife Swap.
