Jelly Beans! I can eat them by the handful....I just don't buy them. Not because I'd gain weight, but anything more than a handful or two and I'd get a stomachache!

Mine was definitely Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs. I was 43 when my mom passed (dad was gone 4 years before). Up until the year she died, she always made Easter "baskets" for her adult kids (grass in plastic butter dishes) with a small Russell Stovers solid chocolate bunny, some jelly beans and malted milk eggs, and a couple of Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs

I have no kids, so since 2003, no Easter candy for me, so it's easy to resist...I just don't buy it and there isn't any around me.

I learned years ago that there are certain foods that I just can't be trusted around, and Reese's peanut butter cups of any make or form are mine lol. So I had to just stop. (That list also included Kraft boxed mac and cheese...it was the whole box or nothing...so I opted for nothing!) lol

Black jelly beans. I haven't had any this year at all because I bought some Easter candy for my youngest and stuck it in the closet and haven't touched it. Now, once the candy is open, I can't promise I won't have any. I think that since surgery I've just really cut back on how much candy I actually bring into my house. Hubby still said I bought too much, but compared to previous years, I hardly bought anything.

I used to go overboard on Halloween, Christmas and Easter candy when my kids were younger. I always, always took care of all that pesky extra candy lying around.

It's really just been in the years since my surgery that I don't buy out the entire candy aisle at the grocery store. If I hadn't had surgery, I'd probably STILL buy a crap-ton of candy even though my kids are all past the Easter basket age because-candy!

I woke up in between a memory and a dream...
