CANDY!

i have pretty much cut out unnecessary foods that are malnutritious (sans ice cream). I never get a hankering for a past favorite food either like cookies or zebra cakes or sugar cereals. I'm also not curled up in a ball, rocking back and forth, jonesing for a Pepsi. Although, i will admit, once and a while when someone near me is drinking it, and i catch a whiff of its sweet aroma, i do get a little sentimental. With that being said, i'm not a total hard-ass on myself either. When holidays come around, i do cave-in and buy some candy. On Christmas Day, i help devour the double-decker box of chocolates/cremes with my family. During Valentine's Day, i will buy a bag of the large candy conversation hearts (Brach's only). And during Easter time, i will always have one Cadbury Egg. And now that it is Halloween, it is time for my most favoritist candies evar -- the Assorted Mallowcremes. Banana moons, lemon corns, maple haystacks and jugs, chocolate catfaces and bats and the large orange pumpkins. They are all so delicious. I used to not care for the maple ones (they're still my least favorite) but i now eat them and mildly enjoy them. I just bought my one bag of halloween candy i will allow myself last night, and i don't know how long it's going to last. I still feel bad when i eat them, but i also don't care. I have to remind myself to live a little.
