Bailey's Caramel, Where Have You Been All My Life?

Have you ever seen an advertisement for a new product and thought, how the hell didn't they come up with this before now? I keep seeing billboards for new Bailey's with Caramel and Bailey's with Mint Chocolate, and I have to say, what have the product testers at Bailey's been for the past ten years? How could they have not come up with this before? Seriously, Bailey's with Caramel should have been in my life for years now. I should have several shot recipes that involve Bailey's with Caramel. I should have used Bailey's with Caramel in every batch of Corn Maze Hot Chocolate I have ever made. I should have poured Bailey's with Caramel on several small scrapes and bruises I have had over the years.

I can't live in the past though, I just have to be grateful that Bailey's with Caramel is a part of my life now. Thanks to the big guy in the sky for that. When I am old and gray I will tell my grandchildren, "When I was your age, there were no fancy Bailey's flavors, we had to make do with plain old Bailey's. Be grateful you dirty brats." And then I will serve them a bottle full of Bailey's with Caramel to put them to sleep.
