1. I have a confession.
I have eaten almost all of the mini-Almond Joy bars out of the giant variety bag of Halloween candy I bought at Costco.

10. and usually people give out Almond Joy or Baby Ruth...
Edited on Thu Oct-30-08 02:04 PM by rucky
so they're not tempted like that. next time invest in the peanut butter taffies in the orange and black wrappers. they're poison.

13. LOL. Or Bit o Honey. Oh yes... lovely Bit o Honey.
It's my curse for buying Halloween candy two weeks early. I never do that usually. But I was at Costco and it was a "might as well do it while I'm here" thing. lol

23. Strong work.
I would suggest starting in on the Baby Ruths next. Then on to Butterfinger. Save Twix for last.

36. I just finished 3 of those.
But they were mini's. Everyone knows you can't get fat from eating the mini candy bars. You have to eat one of those enormous ones they sell at the movies, but those aren't fattening because they are part the entertainment package.
