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?
