I was bringing up the Halloween candy cauldron…

I had hoped all the candy I’d set out was gone, but there were 6 pieces left. On the way up I encountered my downstairs neighbor’s 12 year old son.

"Would you take this candy ?" I asked him. "Otherwise I’ll eat it, and I really shouldn’t." Just then his mother appeared, and I repeated what I’d said. "Please ?" her son asked. "I’d be [b]helping[/b]."

My neighbor laughed at him. "yes, you’re so [b]helpful[/b].Go ahead." I handed him the last six "fun-sized" candy bars and he headed out with his mother. I heard her say, "Six pieces, huh ? I get two." 😄🍬🍭

I spent 4 hours in the waiting room while my truck was getting worked on at the dealership. The gal "overseeing" the operation had a huge bowl of assorted candies. They were left overs from Halloween. The woman would periodically take a shopping bag out of a cabinet and refill the bowl. After resisting for 2 1/2 hours, watching a seemingly endless stream of workers stroll buy to pick up a tidbit or three. Two and a half hours.....grrrr, I gave in. Snickers and Butterfingers, and Twixts and Mars bars.....helpless. The gal smiled as I accused her of being an enabler. She laughed and said "Oh, its not just me, all the gals who work in the back brought their stuff in too".

Another "bet you can't eat just one" loss. Sigh!
