awww.. I love rockets!!! :( lol

You mean, "Smarties"? :hehe: (my husband and I argue about this everyday...)

What were those chewy brown things in the orange wrappers? they were so gross, yuck. And why don't people give out candy corn anymore?! I love candy corn.

I seriously went out for Halloween until I was 14. After that I would take my little sister out and make her share her candy profits... Until I reached 18 and decided I needed to get over it.

Most of the kids in the neighbourhood used to throw those things at each other. I NEVER saw anyone eat one.

So you gave up on your little sister and grabbed little kids in the neighbourhood and forced them to go out hunting for candy with you? :devil:

I loved those chewy brown things in the orange wrappers! They were sort of like molasses chews or something. Now I'm craving one...

No.. .Smarties are smarties :P i.e. the Nestlé chocolate kind.

There are some things I am going to be stubborn on, and that's going to be calling stuff by their original Canadian names. lol! I can picture myself now at the store seeing 'U.S. Smarties' and being like 'oh look! Rockets!'.... hahah

Lona, it's always a pleasure to hear from you! :thumbs: A dirndle is a great costume the only downside is that people will just keep giving you orders for beer. :lol: Cheap and easy costume this year is to put a paper bag over your head and go as a Leafs fan. :lol: All the homemade stuff we got on Halloween either went in the trash or went outside to feed the birds, so that's not paranoid. Sleeping Beauty ate an apple from a little old lady and look at what happened to her. :lol:

Is it just me or does that sort of make me sound like a pedophile? :lol: Naaa, I moved on to giving out the candy, and then mommy dear would let me keep the leftovers :P
