Hot From The Kettle ®
Halloween just doesn't do it for me. I suppose it's because I've never had a huge sweet tooth, even as kid. Now, as mother, I anticipate the horrors of sugar melt downs, and even more gruesome, the inevitable eveing of nausea that undoubtedly awaits.
Shockingly enough, some McDonald's, albeit in California, are handing out apples at their stores this Halloween. According to Food Network's blog, Healthy Eats:
I was strolling through Dulce Candy Boutique with my brood when all of a sudden I encountered a blast from Easter past: Panoramic Easter Eggs.
I remembered receiving these confections as a child, and enduring the bitter-sweet torture of not being allowed to bite into the sugar shell. So, I would stealthily whittle a chunk of sugar from the back, or simply lick the egg all over just to get a taste of the sugar. Fond memories!
So when I saw these eggs, I was so excited, I bought one for each of the kids and one for myself - just kidding! The point is timeless Easter candy does exist.
Co-owner, Melissa Tripoli, says the retro eggs have been very popular this year, and another big seller are the Barley pops, and foil carrots (pictured below).
