REESE'S PIECES

The best part about a road trip is the food. This is because, as everyone knows, when you drive a car speed exceeds the base level of caloric burn, halving calories and permitting higher net consumption for a reduced fat intake. In other words, if you eat candy and you're driving, you won't gain weight. In fact, if you drive fast enough, you'll even LOSE weight, becoming more svelte with every passing mile. This is why, though I am a strictly dark chocolate and diet cola kind of girl, when I go on a car trip, I eat lots of Reese's Pieces.

The equation looks something like this:

Anyway, it struck me the other day, as I was rolling along the interstate, losing inches by the second with my candy and my jumbo iced latte, that Reese's make a fabulous color combination for fall. The palette, after all, is patterned after nature herself. Here are a few spaces where autumnal oranges and browns are always sweet (if not slimming).

Now, this I will have to try. Do you think the officer writing the ticket will grasp this concept?

Oh how I love Reese's Pieces...and Reese's Pieces-inspired rooms, apparently! ;)

Sanity Fair said...

lol - maybe if you explained AND offered him some of the Reese's? Would that be considered bribery?

Sarah Klassen said...

It certainly does! I couldn't agree more -- especially where orange and cream with bits of brown or aged copper are concerned. Love this post, except now, I have a craving for Reese :) mmm.

Fabulous post. I'm so obsessed with Hermes orange...my closet is full of it! I could only do in moderation in my home, but these rooms are tempting... as for the Reeses Pieces, they've been a favorite since I was a kiddo!

That equation makes perfect sense to me! Absolutely love every one of these spaces.
