Also, it's always something store-bought for the reasons you name like food allergies and assurance of freshness/cleanliness. HOWEVER, every single instance of there being tampering in Halloween candy has been proven to be done by either a parent seeking to hurt their own child and blame an outside source, or a prank by the kids themselves. Please, folks, stop spreading this urban legend as fact!Eviliznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-668681313965606529.post-19377382324760703992007-10-22T20:02:00.000-06:002007-10-22T20:02:00.000-06:00Hear hear!

The only thing worse is those "friendship" breads, that make me stay up into the wee hours making bread and keeping some fermenting starter alive (no cheating with store-bought goodies there). From now on I refuse to feel guilty for letting the Phantom die.PdRhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00889909933269143745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-668681313965606529.post-58716936091228143942007-10-23T21:23:00.000-06:002007-10-23T21:23:00.000-06:00Yep, I've always thought that friendship breads ar...Yep, I've always thought that friendship breads are misnamed -- you should only give them to people you want to torment. If you really like your friends, you should never give them anything that requires maintenance!Kelley J. P. Lindberghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16035519922785239330noreply@blogger.com
