Here Today, Gone before Halloween

Yes, I am referring that big pile of candy I was coerced into purchasing today.

Normally, I wait until the last possible moment to purchase the Halloween candy, because it has the tendency to "disappear" well before October 31st. Scott and the kids made a list of the candy they wanted. If I hadn't purchased the confections today, they would have gone out themselves (and paid more for the stuff).

Already tonight, I have used the promise of candy as a bribe to drink more milk. I have threatened to hide the candy because the kids are begging for more (I have hidden the treats effectively in the past, but they might turn the house upside down this year to find it).

My stance - if we run out before next Friday, Scott can make another candy run. I'm done.

Side notes - The KitKat assortment was a nice find - special flavors - double chocolate, white chocolate, halloween (orange and brown). Cool.

My faves - Almond Joys, Whoppers
Scott's faves - Charms Blow Pops, Butterfingers
Erica's faves - KitKats, Charms Blow Pops
Brian's faves - Reeses, KitKats

I hope it lasts for 10 days, but I also wouldn't bet money on it.
