Red Twizzlers are a 'licorice' type sweet only raspberry/strawberry flavoured
Crispy Crunch are a GORGEOUS chocolate bar, peanut brittle crunchy sort of thing and Timbits are donuts-well, the holes actually from the middle of donuts.
All healthy, low fat oods.

I've got something similar to the Red Twizzlers (I think) for Ryan's Honeydukes Hamper that I've made him for Xmas (various little bags of sweets, re-labelled with the Honeydukes logo and given a magical name....all in a cardboard box, stamped 'by owl post'....lol). They're gorgeous. Wish i could remember where I got them now!"I wasn't wrong, I just wasn't right enough.":smileyhea97800072589250

Just all the stuff she bought as presents for me and asked for back (conveniently forgetting the gentlemans rule that you never ask for gifts back)
Ironically, it annoys me when ex's give me my presents back. My attitude is that I bought them in good faith, and if they hate them, they should dispose of them - not return them.
Of course they know it annoys me, which is probably why they do it... :rolleyes:"Follow the money!" - Deepthroat (AKA William Mark Felt Sr - Associate Director of the FBI)
