What candy are you most likely to have in a bowl on your coffee table?
We have 2 dachshunds. It’d be tough for those little guys to get onto the coffee table, but still, no open candy bowls there. When I was young, I got a gumball machine for Christmas. I think Runts were the only candy that ever filled it. Those things started off hard enough to crack a tooth, so you could never tell when they went stale. If I were to unscrew the stand it came with, I think that gumball machine would look pretty good on my coffee table. In exchange for putting it there, my wife would probably want a say in its contents. During the fall it’d be a must to have a candy corn and cashews combo. Maybe those chalky candy hearts in the weeks surrounding Valentine’s day. February would be the month Phoebe and I could lose a few pounds since no one in their right mind would eat those disgusting Conversation Hearts! Absent a seasonal snack, I’d fill it with that wondrous combo of peanut butter in a candy shell— Reese’s Pieces. Hey Mom, that gumball machine still in your basement?
Any Dark chocolate especially if it covers a nut. My mom and dad always had M&M’s on the counter by the door. Always ate a handful on the way in and out of the house. I try to stay away from candy as much as possible cause I can not just have one. Have you noticed how some of the old favorites just do not taste the same. Either my taste buds have changed or the candy makers have changed the recipe.
To make more money they can increase the sale price or decrease their overhead. Likely using cheaper ingredients.
Dark chocolate. Especially a mint flavor with dark chocolate. I don’t keep candy dishes out with candy because I would look like an M&M. Perfectly round. Not good.
If you looked like an M&M, Phoebe might try to eat you!
I’m pretty sure we’ve discussed this before, but in case you forgot, I HATE Reese’s Pieces. Can we compromise and do M&M’s? Even PEANUT (not peanut butter) M&M’s? Or maybe I can continue my weight loss journey from February (thanks to the conversation hearts) into the summer months if you end up filling the machine with Reese’s Pieces.
Wait….are you trying to tell me something?????
First off, we have to locate that gumball machine!
