Dear Martha Stewart,


The other day I picked up a package of Dove Peppermint Bark Dark Chocolate Promises, and they are heavenly.

But your "tips" written on the inside of each wrapper are spoiling my enjoyment of the chocolate. Yesterday you suggested I "Elevate a store-bought wreath with your own trimmings".

Damn you, Martha. First of all, I'm not even sure where my store-bought wreath is, but hopefully I'll find it soon. But you want to me to "elevate" it? I don't "elevate". Things are displayed "as-is" at the Sasha house. Plus I don't have any "trimmings" and most likely won't be purchasing any either.

You also told my son to "Dress packages in candy stripes for a sweet presentation". Martha, re-using a Christmas-themed sack is about as good as it gets for us.

And to top it off, you told WC to "Dip peppermint sticks in white chocolate and nonpareils". Why don't you come over for that one and help clean up? Sounds messy to me.....


Lylas,
Sasha

Is It Already Time For Christmas Candy?????






One of my favorite candy blogs (yes, there's a blog for everything) is Candy Blog and today they reviewed Dove Peppermint Bark Dark Chocolate Promises and I am tying myself to this chair so I don't run out right now and get some. How good do these look?


Has anyone tried them? Candy Blog says they are worth it, even better than an Andes Mint!
