If I don't wake up tomorrow morning, it's probably because I will have entered a candy-induced coma. I haven't had candy since 27 December 2010. I've spent the last year stockpiling some favorites in preparation for 2012. Here's what I've got on hand for tonight after midnight:
Toffifee is readily available at any store here. If you haven't ever had Toffifee, you haven't lived. Try it, it's good. Good & Plenty came in a package from my mom sometime in September. The Chocoa was a gift from a friend for Christmas. The peanut butter cups are only available at Carrefour around Christmas time, so I bought a bag a few weeks ago and then hid it from Jeremy. The toff-chocs or whatever were actually supposed to be for a friend (she was looking for Da'im but IKEA was out), but she ended up not needing them so I gladly kept them. The mentos are from Turkey. Yes, Turkey - I've never seen those flavors before so I bought them in Goreme and then put them out of sight in my underwear drawer for lo, these five months. The only thing I'm missing is York peppermint patties. I know they have them at the Hershey store in Dubai Mall, so a trip there may be in my (imminent) future.
I'm going to keep the "sweets on Friday only" rule for 2012, and I'm sure I'll remember pretty quickly how candy really only tastes good at the moment you're eating it, but hoo boy, am I going to have fun tonight!!!!!
