rockets

About 10 minutes ago K caught me enjoying a bunch of old rocket candies left over from Halloween. There was nothing I could do but share the remainder of my precious rocket packs with her. I quickly developed a pattern, however, that maintained my sugar consumption rate and limited K's. Every time I opened a pack, I'd give one little tablet to K. That would keep her quiet for a while. Then, I'd eat a stack of 5-10 tablets. I repeated this process until each pack was finished. Following this system allowed me to have about 20 tablets per pack ... with K's share coming out to 3 or 4.
