The woes that the holiday season can bring...

[mrhnau]

I recently went to a grocery store, and it was full of beautiful and delicious treats and candies. It made me recall the days of lore, when two of my favorite treats flowed effortlessly to my mouth. I long for the days long past, when I could find such delicious snacks as PB Max and Peanut Butter Log. The harsh and unloving business world decided I did not love them enough, and took away my holiday snack pleasure... what a bitter tragedy...

:waah:

fortunately I can make some of my holiday favorites... one of my pleasures is making candy for the holidays

What are some of your faves?

Dude, those things are lethal weapons:
Peanut allergy kills Canadian teen after kiss Peanut allergy kills Canadian teen after kiss

A 15-year-old Canadian girl with a peanut allergy died last week after smooching with her boyfriend, who had just eaten a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

Anyway, I usually get my wife See's Candies truffles and chocolate oranges (the kind you whack first) for Christmas. For me, I always look forward to a tray of cheese and crackers for the holidays.
