Two@Sea Posted January 1, 2012 #476 Share Posted January 1, 2012 I'll be right over. :D Yes, lucky you. Savor them. Every last delicious morsel. My own mother used to have to hide then when she got them as a gift. I would sneak one and poof up the tissue paper they used to pack them with (those octagon boxes from many years ago) so she wouldn't notice. I would feel guilty for days afterward, and finally admit my theft. And, so, I share when I get them now. Come on over! But, post a few more times first. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare richwmn Posted January 1, 2012 #479 Share Posted January 1, 2012 There was a question of time zone earlier -- just below the count it states that the "Official Clock" for CC is Eastern, but we should make it. Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sail7seas Posted January 1, 2012 Author #482 Share Posted January 1, 2012 I small chocolate company, in Utah I believe, bought the recipe and sells them through Macy's - who bought Marshall Fields. (I've never gotten over the sale) I've got a box on my lap right now!!!! Seriously, they really SOLD the recipe? There should be a law against something like that. Those are the best mint candies ever!!! I would love a taste right about now. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Yes, EE on paper, but I never worked at it a day in my life. I went right into computer programming and retired 40 years later as a Systems and Network manager. :) I'm actually just south of PAFB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuthC Posted January 1, 2012 #490 Share Posted January 1, 2012 But, post a few more times first. ;) Weeeellll, since you asked so nicely--- I was just thinking how nice it is that so many of us are all united in a fun little project. No bickering, no anger. A real community, that's all. And how nice it is that our board hosts have seen fit to let us have our fun. All together. It's refreshing. And it puts a nice end to the old year, with a nice start to the new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
