Goodbye and Good Riddance 2014: so long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, good bye...
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Thanksgivukkahmas, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering.
Buh bye, 2014.
Ooh, I like the idea of cinnamon candy with chocolate filling. The chik-o-stix I am less enthused about (though butterfingers are awesome)
Oh, like Chick-o-stix! [link]
Yes! SO GOOD!
I also forgot to say, I got msbelle's holiday card and it made my day!
Also, I have never heard of chicken bones either. not the delicious ones, anyway.
I think I've had chicken bones candy under a different name ... I think I'd know if I'd eaten something with that name.
In regard to the bread ... place I used to work, we had a woman who would try to impress people with her mad baking skills ... she once made bread that she'd pierced and then dripped different flavors/colors of Jell-O into. Weird. And wet. Tasted about as bad as it looked.
Apparently it's an Australian thing. But no one knows who brought it.
Oooh, mystery Fairy Bread!
I have never heard of any of these sweet things.
Chicken Bones are from a regional candy maker and are a Christmas tradition around here. But they're very divisive. Lots of people think they taste terrible, while others can't wait for them to come back every year. My BFF when I was little would get them in her stocking every year and be very excited. I have to say, I find hard candies with soft centres a little jarring, texturally.
My grandmother used to have them at Christmas, too. The chocolate with mint and also the peanut butter ones. I never knew they were called chicken bones. Are they considered a Canadian thing? My family straddled the Detroit River and family reunions in Windsor were common when my dad was kid.
Oh, this is where I should say I got msbelle's holiday card! With bonus valentine and Hello Kitty tattoo.
Yes, me too! Muy exciting! My son ran off with the card at first and I had to chase him down for it.
I have never heard of chicken bones before. But then again I had never heard of packzi before Steph first mentioned them on the board.
