Num, num indeed.....

...this is my FAVOURITE Easter-type candy...it rocks!

One of my fondest Easter-candy-related memories is not from being a little girl - although it began when I was small, you see when I was a little girl, (back in the day), my mom used to buy me some really cool things for my basket - aside from the 'white chocolate'lamb (which I thought was pretty special), she managed to get me a sugar egg - now the neat thing about the sugar egg was that there was a 'window' inserted at the rounded end of the egg and you could look inside the window and see an 'Easter' scene....I never forgot this 'gift'....

When I had my own children and I got them Easter baskets, I got them some candy but mainly I put books and games and some toys into their baskets because I did not want to give them a lot of candy...I remember though telling my husband at the time all about my memories of the 'sugar egg' and how I never saw them anymore and how cool they were...

Low and behold, one year, he somehow managed to find one of those eggs and give it to me as a gift - I was speechless....

You know sometimes I wonder (not often but sometimes) why I left him....he was one of the good guys....
