The Crème de la Crème

I'd forgotten how good The Simpsons is. I always used to watch as a kid, and I thought that maybe I just had fond childhood memories of it, and that it just would not be as good anymore. But it's timeless. Indeed, I find myself laughing out loud just as much now, as I did when I was 12 years old. It's one smart cartoon, and I really love all the political, and pop culture comments. Certainly, it's overlooked by adults. Half the jokes must go right over kids heads. In many cases, its pure family viewing.
What makes it even better, is that I can watch it free, thanks to Hulu. Video on Demand has taken off everywhere, and its such a great way to wallow away those hours before bed, for cheap students like myself who don't have TVs.
The night was perfected, with one of the best treats known to mankind. A Cadbury's Cream Egg. Absolute bliss. Nobody does chocolate like the British at Cadbury. (Let's hope Kraft don't ruin it). I smuggled these eggs across the Atlantic with me, having hoarded them since they stopped being sold after Easter. The limited supply makes them taste even more delicious. Granted, they may be out of date now, but that doesn't make them any less scumptious. If you have never tried one, get one. You'll have to wait until next Easter though. They sell them at Walgreens here in America, but they just don't have that same British taste, most likely because they are manufactured by Hershey's here. If I have tempted you, I may allow any American in the vicinity who wants to try one to purchase one off me. Out of date or not, I am sure they could fetch a high price!
