Halloween = Candy for Me

I ran into the grocery store today to pick up some Halloween candy. I was a little annoyed because I had been planning to go into town to hit Wal*Mart for candy but winter weather meant I didn't want to try heading over the mountains just for some cheaper candy. Sadly, as it is the Wednesday before the holiday, the selection was limited. I did find some Take 5 bars and grabbed Snickers but was very disappointed about the lack of Butterfingers.

As I was heading for the check out the guy on the radio started talking about Halloween candy and how people pick their favorite candy so that they can eat the leftovers. It was so appropriate to my thoughts. I mean, no Butterfingers. Are you kidding me? Halloween is all about the excuse to buy all your favorite candy and you don't have it? That would have been the last bag I opened, thereby leaving me with my favorite candy bar. Very distressing. It would almost be worth it to take on the Sisters in a blizzard, but not really.
