I also like home made roasted pumpkin seeds. I like them brined and then sprinkled with chili powder
Good topic... my favorite candy-bar of all time is the Clark bar... Can’t find them except at a very limited number of stores, it seems. Far better than the Butterfingers. JMHO. Also old favorites: Mary Janes and Bonomo’s Turkish Taffee. Smack it on the table to break it into biteable size bites.

READ: 2 Timothy 4:1-8
The time of my departure is at hand. 2 Timothy 4:6
Pauls word departure in 2 Timothy 4:6 is freighted with significance. It means "loosing" or "unmooring." Its a word he uses again when he sighs, "I am hard-pressed between the two, having a desire to depart and be with Christ" (Phil. 1:23).
Departure is a nautical term that suggests "shipping out"weighing anchor, slipping the lines that tether us to this world and getting underway. Its a marvelous metaphor for dying.
For believers in Christ, death is not an end but a beginning. It means leaving this old world behind and getting to a better place, completing the purpose for which we were made. Its a time for joy and excitement and a hearty "Bon Voyage!"
All voyages, however, are fraught with uncertainty, especially those that pass through waters never sailed before. We dont fear death so much as we do the passage. Who knows what dangers lie ahead?
But the journey is not uncharted. One has taken it before us, and He has returned to bring us safely through. Although we pass through the valley of the shadow of death, God is with us all the way (Ps. 23:4). His hands are on the helm as He guides us to the heavenly haven He has prepared for us (John 14:1-3).
Just about anything with chocolate but I'd have to say a plain old snickers bar would top it.
Evening Ma!
Guess what? I get to to go NYC tomorrow.
I am pretty sure I remember paying 2 cents for ‘em, too.
Oh man, I love them so! Thanks for the pic. I must enjoy them with my eyes and my memory, now.
WooHoo, NYC!!
And this trip would be for......??????
Evening eyedigress!
Can you try your picture again? It’s that danged ol’ red “x” here! :o)
Frosty Pumpkin Treat
2 Nine inch ready made Grahm-Cracker Crusts
1 18 oz Can of Pumpkin Pie Filling
1 Tub Vanilla Ice Cream (1 3/4 QTS)
Pour the pumpkin pie filling in large bowl, fold in 18 oz of softened Ice Cream and mix thoroughly. Pour mix into the pie shell cover and put in freezer. Thaw 5 minutes before serving and top with whipped cream.
Your guests will think you slaved for hours to make and it had only taken you less than 30 min to make and 5 minutes to be ready to serve.
It’s a bad hotlink (Right click show pic and it will go for a minute) Good to see Everyone tonite. I had to get up a 5 eastern but safely made it to central.
Good evening HuntsvilleTxVeteran, it’s good to see you!
I think Tootsie Pops are not that much more now, around 10 cents. Not too bad!
