If the amount of full sized candy bars passed out Halloween night is any indicator on the economic conditions of area, I would say that things are looking up. We got a lot of candy. Before we call in the dentists, or worse, Jenny Craig for the mom, some alternatives. I don't suggest making all this, and consuming. I suggest making this, and befriending your neighbors. "Oh..I just happened to make this _____ and thought of you". Do what you can mamas. Your denim will thank me, and your kids teeth will too.
-Halloween Candy Cookies-about any candy bar will do, Kit Kats, Hersheys, Crunch bars, Snickers, and yes, even Twizzlers, gum drops, and jelly beans. Probably best not to combine, but then we mamas like to live on the edge don't we?
-Take that candy and make it into a terrine. Which a fancy (pronounced fah-ncy around here) layered ice cream cake.
-Snickers bars Tarts. Yes, I did just use the words Snickers and Tarts in the same sentence. Swoon.

-Twix Bar Cheesecake-I'll beg and plead with my children to give up those Twix bars so I can have this delight.
Strength is the capacity to break a chocolate bar into four pieces with your bare hands-and then eat just one of the pieces. ~Judith Viorst
