since tim (who usually posts the weekend questions) is most likely celebrating easter properly, i'll ask the weekend question:

what is your favorite easter candy and was your most and least favorite as a child?

my favorite now is the reese's peanut butter eggs.

as a child: it was the white chocolate easter bunnies and the marshmallow chickies, but only after they got stale.

least favorite: those way too sweet coconut eggs and black jelly beans.

Don't like sweet stuff... Am a 'lost cause' sweet wise <LOL>

Like home made apple pie, so long as made with Bramley apples and no sugar! 'Proper' English Cheddar cheese on the side - yummy.

Home made ginger and honey ice cream. Berries ice cream - good stuff.

That's about it. Not much good with sweet stuff -

My favorite now is the expensive chocolate - quality candy -Reese peanut butter cups or marshmallow whip eggs or Lindt chocolate

As a child I loved it all except black licorice or black jelly beans -

That was fun

OOoooohhhh yes! Neuhaus chocolates, the fresh cream ones - dreamy. Real yummy - and those fresh cream centres...Oh my goodness. Veree rich though. But real chocolate, (not like sick making Cadbury or Lindt or Nestle - shudder, throw up).

I think as a kid, I liked those giant hollow eggs that had smarties inside them, and the cadbury cream eggs (sorry Molly, what can I say? I have a sweet tooth! But I'm totally with you on the apple pie and proper cheddar!) Hated and still hate anything black/liquorice flavoured!

Now it's any of the "good" kinds of chocolate. Favourite new tradition here is strawberry crepes.

Happy Easter all!

Not specifically easter, but as a child aniseed balls (5 for a penny), liquorice and black jelly beans were really high on my list. I always liked dark chocolate or white chocolate rather than milk chocolate. Marshmallow anything, and chocolate covered peanuts or raisins. I have been known to crave and eat creme eggs, but almost always regret it - don't really like the gluggy stickiness of them.

Cadbury Creme Eggs (not the caramel). Plain Jelly Beans. Chocolate Bird Eggs....perfect candy shell over chocolate. mmmm.

Laura Secord Easter Cream Eggs!!!! Dear god, so sweet that you have to eat them in sliver-like slices because they'll curl your tonsils otherwise, even if you don't have tonsils!!!

And jelly beans. The purple ones most especially.

Love,

Anything chocolate for me... actually did not like some of the other sugary candies.

Here in Argentina thy exchagne chocolate eggs of all sizes.

I love love love Peanut butter eggs. As a kid it was probably the Peanut butter eggs as well (mmm peanut butter). I dislike jelly beans with a passion (as a kid and presently). Love the weekend question!
