when we were young, a woman esteemed as wise told us that men were the hunters, and women were the bunnies. some believed her, and hopped away to roll over at the feet of the first hunters they heard tromping by. the rest of us? we can talk here.

i love the floor. it's beautiful.
and i find it charming that you put a small rug under the TV tray (which, by the way, looks very similar to my TV tray from IKEA - but it can't be mine... or can it?)

the floor had better be beautiful, even if only deceptively beautiful, cheap stuff that it's made of. i made them re-do the whole thing for slight damages here and there. because i am a shrew. and now i'm finding that the floor is also a shrew, as i am concerned about messing it up by spilling water on it or walking around in high heels and whatnot. hence the doormat under the tv tray.
the tv tray could be yours, if you are the twenty-six year old cardiologist of indian descent from pittsburgh who gave it to me last year while trying to unload his stuff prior to moving out of town. if not, then, um, no.
now give me some candy.

if only i were twenty-six... and an indian-american cardiologist from pittsburgh. then all of my problems would be solved. and by "all" i mean "none"
and why was this cardiologist so eager to get out of town that he couldn't keep his TV tray? very peculiar indeed.
i wish i could send candy, but all of my candy cries seem to fall on deaf ears so i'm slightly bitter. it's a shame, really. 'cause i'd send good candy. and lots of it.

oh, ree-hee-hee-heeally?
what kind of candy?
mmmm cannnnndy...

werther's chocolates - delicious toffee mixed with hazelnuts and almonds covered with a deliciously fine milk chocolate... mmmmmm
runts & nerds... i put them in the same line because i can't decide which ones i like better.
also, an assortment of candy bars.
chocolate covered pretzels!! who can resist chocolate covered pretzels?
and, because i'm feeling nostalgic, i'd probably throw in some bottle caps and a lik-m-aid fundip. remember those?

yes. that is good candy indeed. it is a good thing to have you as a blogfriend after all, if you'd send such candy, and lots of it.
i have never experienced the werther's chocolates experience. i will look into that post-haste. i do heart werther's originals.
runts and nerds-- sounds like a d & t phenomenon. runts have more sentimental value for me. nerds are fun and crunchy, but messy to eat, and too often one has to end up licking one's palm.
candy bars are always good. what's your fav?
chocolate covered pretzels! i cannot resist them. but even stronger is the allure of the almond bark or yogurt covered pretzel.
bottle caps? my fav is the root beer flavored one. and lik-m-aid? i was not allowed to try that as a child. my mother thought it unsanitary. although for some reason i recall that the stick part tasted good alone, probably better than with the dip.
i am quite fond of bit-o-honey as well. jelly belly jelly beans rock my world, but only on rare occasion.
how do you feel about ferrero rocher? oh, or those little lindt truffle balls? or milko chocolates? life saver swirl pops? oooo-- chupa chups!!! pop rocks!
lastly, i have always been fascinated with the phenomenon of candy buttons. ever since i saw them on that old willy wonka movie. to me they represent an abundance of candy and happiness in a carefree world festooned with candy button ribbons and big swirl lollipops. but they don't look like they would taste very good.
i should probably reciprocate with the virtual candy-sending. so here's one of everything. enjoy.

how do i feel about ferrero rocher? if ferrero rochers were women, i'd move to a country where i could marry as many of them as possible. sometimes i think of doing that anyway. they're my absolute favorite food.
one year for christmas, all i asked for from everyone was ferrero rocher. i still ended up getting ugly sweaters and a bunch of other less delicious things, but i did make quite a score of rochers. i think i should go out and buy some right now.
the lindt chocolates are good too. was never a fan of pop rocks. they frightened me as a child. and i don't think i've ever had a milko chocolate. though they sound good.
candy, candy, candy, candy, candy.
candy bars... my favorite... that's a tough question. it changes regularly. right now, it's max5. i think there's a similar one in the U.S. (possibly take5) it's peanuts, peanut butter, caramel and pretzels covered in chocolate. love the salty-sweet mix.
probably sounds as though i do nothing but eat candy. if only... i'm all talk and no action.
oh man... no action. not good.

That floor. I want that floor.
And the TV tray: We ahve those in our place too. (My wife just confirmed: I am not a 26-year-old cardiologist, a good thing for my kids, whom I did NOT have at 12 and 14.)

ak: i dunno. caring for a floor like that is, um, what's the word? oh. the floor is high-maintenance. and it's only laminate. is that poser or what?
d: are you for real about the ferrero rochers for christmas? i mean, wow. although i'm not down with polygamy, even if it is just rocher polygamy.
the salty-sweet mix is a phenomenon of its own, and candies with that are in a class all their own. i like payday candy bars quite a bit. i will have to try a take 5/max 5 if possible. i wonder why they won't call them the same thing on both sides of the border?
no action might be okay. if the whole world thought more about candy and less about sex, it would be better off. i am completely serious.
