Saturday-8 :: candy, candy, everywhere!

1. I love chocolate, and my German student always brings me German chocolate from her country. For some reason, I HATE German chocolate! it's not creamy, and it almost tastes like carob. Bleah! But every time, I take it and say "dankeschoen," and then give it to my kids. This might be a difficult answer, but what kind of chocolate do you NOT like?
I am, generally, not a fan of chocolate--unless it�s in something or mixed with something. That said, I love brownies. But, when I was at German camp, we got to buy snacks at a little kiosk. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Toblerones. And, for a treat, we got these bars called �Rittersports�. I have seen Rittersports here (Iowa) once, bought it and it didn�t taste as good as I remembered.

2. One candy I cannot resist is Jelly Belly jellybeans. I prefer the original kind. However, I cannot stand any other kind of jellybean! Are you a jellybean fan?
No. No. No.

3. Even though I love candy, I never eat it at the movies. I ALWAYS get theatre popcorn and a soda, and no candy. Do you forego candy at the movies and stick w/ just popcorn, or do you always have movie candy?
I hate popcorn. Hate, hate, hate popcorn. Every once in a while, I�ll have Reese�s Pieces. Mostly, I like licorice at movies.

4. I love brownies, and you will often find home-made ones in my home. Do you bake brownies, or are you one of those people who purchases them pre-made from the supermarket bakery?
I like to bake them, from scratch or a box.

5. I don't like cake or ice cream, and don't ever eat it at birthdays or weddings. I don't even like to eat it at my own birthday. Are you a cake-and-ice-cream person?
I wouldn�t say I love cake, but I like it. I do love ice cream.

6. Even though I am not a cake/ice cream person as a general, I LOVE chocolate cake. I prefer the 'manufactured' supermarket or Entermen's chocolate cake over the homemade kind. I consider chocolate cake my 'Achilles heel.' Do you have a specific sweet that will ALWAYS make you buckle?
Brownies, especially fresh from the oven and still warm. And fudge.

7. I am 31 years old, and I've never had a cavity, even though I've got a sweet tooth. Have you had cavities/fillings, or do you avoid the dentist like the plague?
I�ve had one cavity. I don�t avoid my dentist--he avoids me.

8. Now for a naughty question ... have you ever, or do you regularly, implement sweets in the bedroom? Could be anything from whip creme to chocolate sauce to ... ??? Tell us about it!!! ;)
I live at home. With my mother. What do you think?
