My favorite holiday candy... not really a candy, but popcorn balls. I can only find them at Christmas, and I love them.

Greta said...

I was going to guess that your favorite is a candy cane since you strike me as someone who isn't overly traditional but who can appreciate something simple. But since you said holiday and not Christmas I'm going to go with peeps.
