THE CANDY MAN CAN

Our courtship was perfect.  Filled with flowers, jewelry, cards, and candy
Always chocolate candy.  As the years went by, the other gifts may have fallen 
by the wayside but never the candy because we both had a passion for chocolate. 
It was the gift we could give each other on any occasion and know it would be hit. 

It troubled us so to have such chocolate addiction that Ron suggested we should 
try some herbal product that would curb our appetite for chocolate.  My response
was, “Then why go on living?”  We agreed and continued topping all our celebrations
with special chocolate goodness.
 
I sure miss my Candy Man:-(

    1. Thanks. It has been almost 6 years since Ron died and just when I think things are better, I become all melancholy again.

    1. I might try the WFW again. I have lost my desire to draw of write but it would be good to be creative again.

  5. Lovely, Annie.

    I've just made myself a very rich chocolate cake...it is presently cooling. I believe in treating myself....why not enjoy what we enjoy...I'm sick of all the restrictions demanded by the "experts"!!!

    Take good care.

  8. I remember once telling my husband to not buy me anymore chocolate, saying I didn't want to start getting fat. The real reason is that he always bought the cheapest he could find and it was never nice.

    1. Uh Oh. Maybe you should have picked out all the candy in your house.
