Nancy Sue said...

My favorite was chocolate cherry cordials until I realized they have as much wheat in them as a communion wafer (I'm celiac). So now I'm onto a caramel corn kick. Does that count as a candy? ok, what if I drizzle chocolate on it...now is it a candy? Yum!

Nancy Sue said...

Hmmmm. I think....well I have no idea what kind of candy you like, so in keeping with the quilting them, I'm going to say Ribbon Candy :)

The Hungry Crafter said...

Favorite holiday candy... does straight up chocolate count? Actually, I'll say generically "cookies" -- because there are so many wonderful cookie swaps everywhere you go for the month of December. love it! Best to you and yours.

tpott said...

My favorite holiday candy would be homemade truffles. Dark chocolate truffles to be exact. Merry! Merry!

The Hungry Crafter said...

For entry number 2, I'm going to guess candy canes as well...mostly because "candy" implies a sugar-based confection, and the candy cane is the only non-chocolate thing I can think of! But that's probably more a reflection of my personal bias towards chocolate than anything else ;)

tpott said...

I'm guessing your favorite candy would be red and green holiday M&M's.MMMMMMMMMMM:)

tpott said...

On a completely different note, I'd like to sent some heartfelt hugs to you, Elijah(beautiful name)and your family. I've had a major health problem in the past few years. Just having your loving family around will help Elijah more than you know. Be strong, he needs that. I'm sending some prayers your way. ^_^

webmailaddress2 said...

I like the whackable chocolate oranges. They're not exclusively holiday, but they seem to be around more during Christmastime.

webmailaddress2 said...

As for your fave candy, I'm going to guess fudge?

Chancy said...

My favorite holiday candy used to be those mint bells, but I can't seem to find them anymore. So I guess my runner up will be See's Candies...which isn't really a holiday candy, but come on, who doesn't end up with a gift certificate or a pound of See's during the holiday season?

ps. Thinking good thoughts for your nephew!
