How great is it to have football back??  I love everything that has to do with football!  Especially the parties!  We all usually have the same old same old when it comes to food for an afternoon of watching our favorite team!  But to spice it up a bit how about adding some candy treats in your favorite team colors!  Here are a few suggestions!  And yes, these are a few of our favorite teams too!

Who's Your Candy?

All Candy Expo Starts TOMORROW!

All candy expo
Close your eyes and imagine a place where you can sample all the candy you want, AND go home with a bag of candy that you can fill until you can't fit anymore- welcome to Chicago's All Candy Expo. Its new name, is The Sweets & Snacks Expo- I guess they have expanded beyond just candy these days. Perhaps it is a way of giving savory treats some publicity? I'm down with that- salty foods need props too.

All the big name brands (to name a few): Jelly Belly, Tootsie Roll, Wrigley, Nestle, Hershey, Spangler, Charms, Brach, Farley & Sathers- they will all be there ready to impress the distributors with mouth-watering new candy lines. I remember going there as a kid and I was so excited to sample Reeses' Nutrageous before it even set foot out on the market!

So if you are a bulk candy/snacks distributor, a vending machine owner, or you're just plain lucky enough to get hooked up with a pass to go to the show, here is some advice before you go:

1- If you are a diabetic, bring some insulin!

2- Eat your protein for breakfast because it is carbohydrate city once you walk through the doors!

3- It wouldn't hurt to get in an early workout prior to going- it'll make you feel less guilty when you go home with a belly ache.

4- Bring a Tide Pen. You might get a chocolate stain on your clothes from sampling!

5- Bring the largest purse you have in your closet- might I recommend a Louis Vuitton Speedy 35?

HOW TO SAY “I’M SORRY!”

Now it is not often, but sometimes I am wrong and have to say "I'm Sorry!" to my husband.  I discovered that candy is an amazing way to do it!  I remembered one time my husband said how much he LOVES Bit-O-Honey so I grabbed him a little baggy full and brought them home the other day.  All I had to do was place the baggy in front of him and all was right in the world again!  Here are a couple of other ways to say "I'm Sorry" with candy!

1.  Did you forget your anniversary?  Dove Chocolate Promisesare a delicious way to say I "Promise" to remember next year!!  It will also be much more difficult for your spouse to remain mad at you if they are eating a delicious chocolate treat!

2.  Do you need to say "I'm sorry for not being nice to your parents…again!"  Riesen chocolates will make them forget everything!  Just say this is the "Riesen" that you love me and I promise to do better next time!

3.  Did you forget to program the coffee maker again?  Present your loved one with Now & Laters!  You will remember "Now & Later" to always have the coffee brewing for a great morning!
