Are some that are working from home getting axed because they don’t want to work in the office I wonder.

I have heard exactly that. In the end,he owns the company, and can do whatever he wants,implement his own culture,surround himself with like minded people. Sounds like what happens at every company when ownership changes hands.

Oh I’m saying i have the opposite problem. They got a ton of the good stuff but they don’t like it! Not sure they are even human children at this point. They willingly handed over all the good candy to me, so i end up having a few pieces with every meal now.

They kept the sour patch kids, smarties, skittles, all the super sweet stuff. They left all the peanut butter/chocolate/caramel to me

They also have a few fruit roll ups? Not sure I’ve ever seen fruit roll ups handed out on Halloween. But they are happy about it

Well played.

The email is legit. I've been going to the salon since the day my mom came home from the hospital with me. I don't have a lot of gray hair so I may not get picked. All of mine is in the front and can be somewhat disguised. They may need someone who has much more than me.

I had a kid ask if he could give skittles back.....AND no one wanted Snickers or Milky Way.
I weep, gently. (and I kept full sized Snickers for myself.) and Whoppers suck

Have you ever had freeze-dried Skittles?

Yummmmm
 
Made a skillet full of Mexican quinoa. Plenty left over for tomorrow which will be great on what is going to be a wet, chilly day

If someone ever gave me Good-N-PLenty I would bury that crap in the yard and not even allow it in my trick or treat bag to eliminate any chance of it contaminating the good stuff

When I was a kid....way way back in the 70s, we had a neighbor who made popcorn balls to give out....My grandmother was one of the most popular stops in town as she made candy apples every year for the kids...

The lady across the street (Mrs. Graham) made popcorn balls. My Mom made donut holes dunked in sugar and cinnamon. They were yummy. The farmhouse down the road had cookies and warm cider.

Just awful. The video from Texas is heartbreaking. Nocturnal tornadoes are terrifying.

Idabel, OK got rocked by the light purple storm. I really hope everyone took the warnings over the last week seriously.

Parents in the OKC Metro were pulling kids from school today because these storms went through this morning. Lots of PTSD there.

Going north of you?

Yes, my gramma made popcorn balls, too. For us, that is. And the best roasted/toasted pumpkin seeds in the oven, properly salted. I like my salt.

Been taking care of my dad since he got home from his full knee replacement surgery. It's been...a lot. My dad is getting stir crazy not being able to do much. I'm praying this recovery goes by fast. It's sucks seeing your parent not being able to do the things he loves for awhile.

100% agree. I’d add Mounds bars to that list as well. There’s a special place in hell reserved for people who deliberately hand out Good n Plenty’s and Mounds bars at Halloween.
