Happy Friday all!
This is not the first time I have talked about candy here, nor will it be the last, but it is my tied-for-first favourite candy time of the year: Easter. Or really, the day after when everything is discounted.
Creme eggs, malt balls, peanut butter eggs. Don’t talk to me about mini eggs though. Really. Don’t.
But if you don’t like candy (WHAT), I’ve got something else sweet for you: this week’s Feel Good Friday!
So grab a creme egg, or an apple, and sit down and let the goodness wash over you.
