Intrigue!
Today I found this little parcel waiting for me at my desk:
We bought a bag of these style of boxes candy treats for a party last week. [Side note: What is the classification for these things? You know, Lemonheads, Boston Baked Beans, Jawbreakers, etc...do they belong to specific confectionery category? Boxed candy doesn't seem quite appropriate.] [Second side note: In case you were wondering, the Orangeheads were the first to go among party-goers.]
Since then, I've had a real thing for the Red Hots in particular. In fact, we still have a mound of this {insert box candy genre here} waiting for anyone who would like to come trick or treating in our living room but that mound has been picked clean of the 'Hots. So, just when I thought I was out, this little package magically appeared.
Secret packaging + trendy candy desires = good husband!
P.S. Please don't tell my dentist about this. I just had my cleaning last week.
that's sweet, and very generous. I like the lemonheads the best. I like the box second.

i call that style of candy "ferrara pan" style...even when they aren't ferrara pan candies. i also refer to the ferrara pan factory as "the best place on earth." sadly, they don't do factory tours anymore, but it's still a great place to visit when you're chicago. the end.

Yeah, Ferrera Pan-type is what I know them by!
And Orangeheads went first because they are the BEST. Even if no wrapped in brown paper and with a darling little note.
