"We'd like you think about the perfect occasion to enjoy a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. We'd like you to describe in detail the ideal situation that you would eat a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. E.g. Are you alone? With friends? With family? What time of day is it? What else are you doing? Please be as creative as you like with how you describe your ideas. You may use any medium you like, including collage, literature (poem, narrative, letter, etc.), paper mache, sculpture, painting or drawing. Everyone who brings the homework will be considered for a $75 "best homework" prize in addition to the incentive amount."
My homework was a small (8" x 8") art quilt. Not that I've ever done anything like this before, but what the heck! Personally I don't believe there is any specific "perfect time" to enjoy a RPC. All the time is perfect for me (for those of you that where at our wedding, you might remember that we even had some at our candy table)! I do believe that they are meant to be shared (that's why there are 2 individually wrapped in the package). But don't get me wrong I'm happy to finish it off on my own if there is no one around to share it with.

This image was also another source of inspiration for me. A month or so ago we were at the grocery store, and just before entering the frozen food area I came upon this glorious site! It made me almost giddy, I could hardly contain my enthusiasm. I had to take a picture and of course we purchased some.
I am proud to announce that I was a winner tonight for the "best homework" prize (it was a tie, but the other winner was pregnant, so I think she got a sympathy vote). The prize was on top of getting to eat and talk about Reese's Peanut Butter Cups for 2.5hrs! What more could I have asked for?! As Emily said to me today (via Facebook) "Do you feel like, in some ways, you've been training your whole life for this?" ...Yes, yes I did. My whole life. It was a proud day for me.
