Mmmmm.... Candy.

So, how do you love my new centerpiece?

It's from Mich. I love Mich. Heck, anyone who knows Mich loves Mich, and I'm not just saying that because she made a 7 page long candy poster and sent it to me in the mail with a bunch of other candy/fun in a box - I'm saying it because it's true.

For your reading (drooling) enjoyment, I'm gonna show you my pretty genius candy poster. What slays me about this is that she didn't plan out the poster before she bought the candy. Oh, no. Mich went through the candy aisle, picking up pretty much one of everything, and then she went come and created this masterpiece.

Truly, this is great. Enjoy!







Hahahaha... Awesome, right? My favorite are Mike and Ike, the roommates who lived together on 5th Avenue. That whole page was a stroke of candy-writing genius, wasn't it?

And like a 7 page candy poster wasn't enough - check out the other beauties that were in my magical box of sugary goodness. Cinnamon Bunnies (much like Cinnamon Bears, but Eastery), jelly beans, Peeps, assorted chocolate Easter candy, glow-in-the-dark products (I heart glow-in-the-dark toys, btw, just in case you weren't aware) and a pretty sweet beach movie double feature. Yeah, it was pretty much a party in a box. (And for those of you who were wondering - yes, it's for reasons like this box that I stay in touch with old workmates and friends for decades. Where in the world, other than Central Bank, would I be able to find such a prize who would send me such a package?)


I know, I'm pretty much the luckiest girl. Ever.

You have very kind, clever and funny friends! Free candy is always great, but to get it in such s creative way makes it even better!

So jealous! What a fun thing to get in the mail. But I am not surprised at all of your admirers, you are swell!

Wow! That really is a stroke of candy-writing-genius! Whoever this Mich is, she's ultra clever--those are pretty tough to write (I've written and/or received over 5 of those in my lifetime and none came out that good). I even sent Mike over to see it.
