Tootsie Rolls

Tuesday, August 21st, 2007

It can be difficult for me to appreciate simple candy pleasures but when possible, I like to savor the types of candy that used to really make my day as a kid. I would eat Swedish Fish, the individually wrapped ones, and really savor them; spend 10 minutes alone in a dark room with a […]

Sugar Rush

Thursday, February 23rd, 2006

There is nothing like a complete sugar rush. I’ll admit, it’s been a while. Getting a sugar rush usually relates with being a kid, but I think adults could so with a sugar rush every so often too! So what is the best candy for a sugar rush you ask? It’s something that you probably […]

The Ultimate Cookie

Sunday, December 25th, 2005

Merry Christmas and happy holidays candy lovers! Hopefully you all received some sweet treats this holiday season. I know I did. I spent the past few days baking dozens and dozens of cookies.

The Lost Holiday

Sunday, November 27th, 2005

Candy is a staple of holidays. Of course Halloween being the biggest. But then there is also tons of candy around for Christmas, Easter and the 4th of July.

Christmas Hershey Kisses are what makes this world a good place to be living. Hershey kisses are in general amazing. The little chocolate drops of heaven never leave my mouth unsatisfied (unlike some other kisses I’ve had, but we won’t go there).

Five Cents

Friday, November 11th, 2005

Do you remember when candy used to cost 5 cents or less? I do, which actually makes me feel old. But nevertheless, its another good family memory. I think being home for a wedding this past weekend is what spawned my overabundance of childhood memories. But it’s always good to remember happy times from the […]

Today I went to the craziest first birthday party that I’ve ever seen. There were tons of people and food. And there were two birthday cakes. Yes, two! The first was a big cake that had a picture of beautiful baby Jordan on it. The second one was a smash cake, and it was all […]

Love/Hate Relationships

Thursday, October 20th, 2005

You’ve all been there. That person that you just want to kill sometimes, but you still love them. Ok well I’m applying this concept to candy. Not just any candy. I’m talking about THE candy. You see this candy and the first thought in your head is Halloween. With Halloween fast approaching, I thought this […]

Snickers

Nutty and gooey - you always satisfy.

What Kind of Candy Are You?
Hmm, so I’m a Snickers. I’m not sure how I feel about that. I mean sure, I’m a bit nutty, and I would hope that I always satisfy (minds out of the gutter people!) but gooey? Does ANYONE want to be gooey?? It’s a […]
