    I purposely bought extra since I don't have kids at home anymore. Kept it to 3 mini bars though. Great pic!

    Nope. It's in the back of my car, I'm looking for the right bridge to throw it off.

    Actually, I didn't...I'm a weirdo in that I really don't like most of that stuff. I'm not a fan of milk chocolate at all and have never really liked candies other than jolly ranchers, jelly beans, and gummy bears.

    I don't have to raid it. Several years ago, I enacted a parent tax on the candy. The parent tax is simple: you volunteer 5% of your candy (not just the lame stuff, there'd better be a good selection), OR I come collect it myself plus an additional 5% "audit fee".

    Parent tax was on the dining room table this morning before I left for work. :drinker:

    They are just shills used to fill my coffers full of sugary treasures. They're lucky if they get to sniff the wrappers after I'm done stuffing my pie hole.

    candy murder is a felony.

    candy mass murder is punishable by death.

    in my city you can drop it off at the local fire station and they hand it out to lesser fortunate kids that couldn't go trick or treating....kids in the hospital, low income kids whose parents are working etc etc.

    this is candy murder.

    I like to think of it as a learning tool to share what you have with those less fortunate than you. Ya know, like your mom who spends all her money on buying you little do dads and trinkets. Now gimme all your butterfingers and kit kats boy!!!

    Well - we went trick-or-treating in three neighborhoods. Our house, in-laws, and my parents. Soo.... Sunday my daughter graciously gave me one Snickers and one Butterfinger. I took a tootsie roll just to be.... well I guess I randomly wanted a tootsie roll. She's way too nice that I don't have to ask her.... she even packed candy for her teachers today.

    Yesterday when she got home though I raided her bucket and immediately took the peanut butter snickers. To which she replied "Well, I got that for you mom!"

    I can usually resist candy bars but I'm pretty sure I ate oen or two more pieces last night. And have every intention to take candy on a regular basis from the bag now.

    I LOVE CANDY!!!

    You bet I did!! My daughter is allergic to peanuts so every year she divides what she can't eat between Hubby and I! I logged every bit of it, and it came out to be a fun size of 760 calories!!!

    We have no little kids any more but there's a tin full of left over chocolate calling my name, I think I logged about 450 calories yesterday. I'm relying on my skinny son and husband to get rid of temptation for me.:smile:

    My kids actually offered me some, I gave them my sob story about how my Mom used to steal all my favorites for herself(true story). I had like three pieces, and then we all had a bowl of S'mores ice cream together :bigsmile:
  • Yep. I did! And guess what?
