It Mocks Me, That Evil Halloween Candy
I feel like I am living in a nightmare.
You see… it just sits there.
Taunting me.
Mocking me.
Those bags of UNOPENED HALLOWEEN CANDY laying in my pantry. As much as I fear them now, the true horror comes after they are opened.
AFTER the kids go Trick or Treating. 
AFTER they go to bed.
That is when my REAL horror movie begins. It is the official start of a wicked holiday season that begins with mounds of chocolate and ends with egg nogg and pie. Oye. I am soooooo not ready for this!
MUST. RESIST. CHOCOLATE. (Anyone else out there get the feeling I am fighting a loosing battle?)
(Note: This entire post was inspired by Sarah of Classy and Fabulous. She totally Twittered out a picture of unopened candy stating: “I feel like I am being tortured by indescribable evil.” And holy hell – did I relate immediately! EVIL CANDY. EVIL.)
Why does it mock me? Even at 7:19 AM I WANT IT. I could eat 15 pieces of candy before 8 am and it wouldn’t even phase me.
Damn you, Halloween!!
–>I eat candy for breakfast year long. I’m about to open a Reese’s cup to enjoy with my coffee right now actually. Plus, if you eat it in the morning you have all day to burn off the calories.
I just need a good excuse for the candy I eat for dessert now.

Ugh! Me too. I literally eat it until I am sick. Every damn year.
I seem to have somehow lost my taste for chocolate on the whole, so halloween isn’t a real problem except for Candy Corn. I love sugar, pure sugar… so sweet tarts and caramels, etc. would kill me. Good thing I’m not buying them nor do we have trick-or-treaters anymore around here. Good luck to you Jen! I know it’s gonna be tough! Don’t deny yourself entirely, btw.. at least that is what Dr. Oz. says..hold yourself accountable and have a ‘portion’ to avoid the need for bingeing on the forbidden.

I have the WORST sweet tooth! I don’t even buy it until right before I need it since I have no self control.

Oh we are soooo the same person!
I always buy stuff I don’t like, that is the only way I can survive!

Mine awaits Halloween from the trunk of my car. There is NO way I could keep it inside this house and expect there to be any left for the big day!
