Four Foods on FridayJuly 31st, 2008
Fun, Crafts and Recipes hosts Four Foods on Friday. This weeks questions are all about candy.
#1. Candy. Do you prefer sweet or sour candy?
I love sweet candy. Sour- not so much.
#2. Gum. Love it? Hate it? What kind is your favorite?
I love gum. The only problem is that if I chew it too much it makes my jaw start to ache. So, I don’t chew it very often.
#3. What is your favorite candy?
M&M’s- preferably the peanut M&M’s but the plain ones are fine too.
#4. Share a recipe for anything that you can include a piece of candy in.
I haven’t had this in years but it is soooo yummy! And now I need to make some.
Whatchamacallit
Ingredients:
6 cups Crispex
2 cups Cheerios

oh that recipe is far too convenient, which means it will be made late at night and often.
