Thank you!

mmmm pep o mint are my favorite to be sucked while drinking ice water.

For any not knowing - Lifesavers are round candies with hole in centre like Polos but loads more flavours.

He didn't TELL you?!?

It wasn't a secret -- I sent them along. Sorry I couldn't find the tropical fruit flavors.

My favorite is Butter Rum, but I hadn't had ANY in a million years, and then I just couldn't find any except the bags in the grocery store when I was looking for them. Where have all the individual rolls gone? And the holiday "books"?!?

I loved those holiday books and the tropical flaours and the butter rum. Remember trading fav flavours with my sibs. I was the only one who liked the pepomint so they would discard those without me having to trade for them.

Hated wintogreen. Bleagh that is the only flavour I did not like.

I wonder is there a favorite sweet thread on Mudcat.

bit o honey, mallow cups, zagnut, maple nut goodies, boston baked beans, french burnt peanuts, Biechs banana bites,

Gods I need to go home and stock up on candy.

Butter Rum - YUM. Warm and soothing when I have a cough.

That little bag sat here for a week. We wondered where it belonged. Don't know how Micca finally figured out it was for Liz.

Linn - unless it's written down somewhere or it involves him getting alcohol, he'll forget. He couldn't remember who gave them to him, or why they were for me, but he did remember to deliver them!

Thanks Linn and Micca.

When you chew wintergreen Lifesavers, they make sparks inside your mouth.



No, really.

Liz, anytime something from this side of the pond gets delivered by Micca, PM me, I'll probably know where it came from. I was witness when Linn gave him the bag and the instructions.
