Candy…

I’m a candy loving girl.  I definately have a major sweet tooth.  Some of my favorite candies are Reeses Peanut Butter Cups, Skittles, and 3 Muskateers Bars.

But…

My favorite candy ever is Pulparindo candy.

I seriously buy this stuff by the box.  I fell in love with it back when Karina was working at the taqueria.  One evening she brought home a bag of suckers and a box of these candies, and I would steal three or four every mornng before I left for work!

When I was in Mexico, I found out that some shipments were recalled due to have traces of lead in the powder that’s on top.  I slowed down for a few days, but quickly went back to buying a couple boxes every few days.  In Mexico, I could get this stuff for 15 pesos!  And it was crazy fresh!

Today, I think I paid $3 (twice as much!) and it is like chewing a garden hose it is so tough.

But it is still so yummy…  

And its really fun to talk people into trying it, and then watching the repulsed looks on their faces when they taste the spicey/sourness. 

 

 

On a completley unrelated notes, the cook started acting civil to me.  I had a quick mental anguish moment, trying to decide if I should continue the feud and hold a grudge, or make life easier and just follow her lead and act normal.  I did, and I’m glad…  A weight has been lifted from my shoulders!

And, I got to work with my friend today for the first time in a week.  I stayed 8 hours today, but being with her made my day go so much smoother.
