No more nasty taffy

No I don't no way no how do I like even look at Mary Jane's. There is something about the taste, how it looks and the annoyance that was one of the candies in my Halloween Bag that always appeared. I hate them don't why and yet hate is strong word but there is something about them.

Why would you name a candy that is tan brown and square after a little girl. Look at it, it is just wrong and the taste is just ECK like sandpaper.  It is also so hard that I that the one time I tried it literally couldn't get it out of my mouth and teeth. My dentist was not happy with that x-ray with the little piece of candy in my teeth. If you are going to name a candy after little girl, stick with pink & sweet and leave candy like that for seaman.

The Candy Is Mine

English: An Almond Joy bar, broken in half. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Candy and memories I can't remember many for when I eat candy I alone in my thoughts for I am too selfish to share with others.

I do enjoy the Halloween when I have to go looking for my almond joy, which by the way is really becoming a hot commodity since I don't see them any more in the bag when I check. I guess growing up in a home where candy was a luxury it had to be hidden since it was to be shared among others, I am pretty flexible but not like that since my siblings did the same. It was a quiet understanding but if one broke it, then the fists came out to defend our stash. Our mom did yell but we didn't say why other than he hit me or she is not be fair.

Mom was to never know and to this day I wonder if she did now but choose to stay away.

Darkness of my life

Yes  there is darkness in my life of who I follow which is the Hershey Special Dark Chocolate Bar. It is the sweet touch of bitterness that I crave for.

As with all darkness comes it has consequences which as such becoming a rare item to find.   Since the last time I had the extra dark finishing off my Easter candy in late May the craving came again but never left.  Over the last two months, I have not seen a Hershey's Special Dark Chocolate Bar in my local 7-11, CVS, Waldbaums and other shopping establishments which is highly upsetting.  When I have a bad day or knowing the mess I would come back to after food shopping, I pick up my Hershey's Extra and slowly eat it as I go home.

At my last doctor's appointment in Setauket, I was disappointed so as always the way to comfort myself is with something sweet that put me on a mission for my chocolate. As I was driving home, I stopped at CVS and lo and behold there was the Hershey Special Dark.   That made my day much more satisfying, the quick fix to allow myself to breath and not think about the negative rather just breath in the sweet bitter taste.

It is the simple things that can always make us feel better, personally I wish I was a kid so I can have mommy make it go away than have it fester with me.
