EATING THE DECOR



I sprinkled a handful or two of these pumpkin candies on a table in the hallway. I thought they looked darling. Joshua's friends apparently thought they looked delicious. I heard them crunching their teeth on the stale, hardened candies they swiped on their way outside to play. "How old are these?" someone asked. And then my favorite: "Do these hurt your teeth, too?" Ha! Serves 'em right for eating my decorations. The funny thing is, there was a whole bowl of candy--fresh and still in their wrappers--around the corner on the kitchen counter. I guess they just didn't look as pretty!
