CandyBy Tracy Fink on Tuesday, August 30, 2011 All great ideas - I usually put it all on top of the fridge and pass out 1 piece a day. Out of sight, out of mind eventually! By the time Christmas rolls around I am throwing out gross candy. But now that my 12 year old son is 5'9", I am going to have to find a higher hiding/holding spot! |
candy girlBy meredith on Tuesday, August 30, 2011 Thanks Yvette:) I head to the fitness trainer tomorrow after a three week hiatus. I'm gonna be in time-out. |
candyBy Yvette on Tuesday, August 30, 2011 I laughed off a Twix watching your vblog. I think you are on to something. |
BTW>>>By meredith on Tuesday, August 30, 2011 That jingling sound you hear in this vlog is just my mutt Roxy. I was slightly afraid that she was going to eat the candy off of my legs mid-vlog. |

Hey Tracy, loving the top o' the fridge idea. The only person that would be able to eat it in my house is my 6'7 husband. It would save me some fitness trainer bills for sure.
