After Easter Chocolate
The post-holiday candy sales have now come and gone, and the goodies have been vacuum packed. Didn't have nearly the haul I had last year. Seems the stores simply didn't stock as much. Did anyone else experience that?
I was too busy to go to the stores on Monday . . . but still have a box left over from last year's sales. I had stored in a dark cool place and you could not tell it was a year old..gif "L0 (57)")

I have mine stored that way, too, and last year's chocolate tastes as if it was bought yesterday. Well, I just HAD to taste test it to make sure.
i went to Walmart Wednesday but couldnt find any Cadbury chocolate mini eggs
In the midst of this war of words and tumult of opinions, I often said to myself: What is to be done? Who of all these parties are right; or, are they all wrong together? If any one of them be right, which is it, and how shall I know it? -Joseph Smith
Honestly, I didn't see ANY of those this year! Too bad, as they are my favorites!
The only candy I found was Robin Eggs, so I bought it all up and then sealed it up in a quart jars with my new handy-dandy Food Saver accessory hose.
They also had M&M's (plain & peanut) at 50%, so I grabbed some of them, too. Sealed those babies up in pint jars. I read on that Kellene's (Doomsday Preppers) blog that hers were sealed for 3 years before she did a taste test for the peanuts going rancid and they were just fine. Woot!!
I'm lovin' this Food Saver!!
