My one weakness

[breakinglight11]

I have heard a rumor that in February in honor of Valentine's Day, Nabisco makes an Oreo with red velvet cookies sandwiching cream cheese frosting. I have never taken advantage of it in the past, for fear that if I do in fact get a hold of such a thing, you may end up having to roll me down the street. But since it's February again, I find myself wondering if they will be offering them this year. I tried Googling, which did not seem to offer any way to buy them except from limited stock on Amazon, which makes me slightly concerned that people are hawking year-old cookies.

But red velvet is quite possibly my greatest dessert weakness, outside of my lifelong addiction to regular Coke. Despite my current state of being on a pretty strict diet, I do get one treat day a week where I can eat anything I want, and more than one in the five or so months I've been at this has had red velvet cake as the centerpiece of the indulgence. I really would not mind having a little pack of these special Oreos for one of those days. But I'm nervous about having a whole pack just lying around my house-- even if, or perhaps especially if, they are a year old!

I *have* seen them in stores this year, although only once or twice. Not certain, but I *think* I saw them at Wegman's. (No clue if they're any good or not...)
