Hmmm, cold, damp, cloudy day: a perfect scenerio for Halloween candy purchases. lol  I love this season, it's a great excuse to buy Halloween candy.  lol  Funny, every year I look forward to choosing (for the kids, mind you, RIGHT) MY FAVORITES   Kit-Kat, Almond Joy, Nestle's Crunch.    What are yours?

That's pretty smart, Doris.  Sorry, that has to be a tough situation.

M & M's, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, Hershey's dark choc w almonds (but milk choc tastes better). You best hide double chocolate peanuts from me. I wait until the last min to purchase H. candy or I have to keep replacing it!

Mounds or Almond Joy. Mmmmmm! I have a few old time names from the candy store. Anyone remember...bit o honey, payday, big time, skybar, planters bar. Those showed up in our sack once in awhile. In our neighborhood, there wasn't much money to go around. We were glad just to get a little candy corn, popcorn balls, tootsie rolls, or our favorite neighbor who made the best candy and carmel apples ever. Today, the Mrs. hides the candy until Halloween. Luckily, I get to give out the candy though. I usually dress up a little too. I think this year a biker will do. And I have everything I need around the house except some temp tattoos. I better hit the dumbells a little harder the next few days though.
