I got distracted by the comment by Kathy Douglas.
ReplyDeleteI gave my daughter a Whitman's sampler on three occasions. (I couldn't find them after that.)Each came with a soft toy Snoopy. When we decorate for Christmas they have a special spot. There is a Snowman Snoopy, Snoopy in a pink bunny suit and a Snoopy in a green onesie and striped nightcap.
I'm no good at naming chocolates, just eating them.

That makes a great quote, Mary!
Delete"I'm no good at naming chocolates, just eating them."
Mind if I steal it?
Well this is a hard giveaway. Lol I'm guessing Cheryl Pierson because she deceived the big heart shape boxed candies and that would have been before the boxes had cheat sheets to what was inside!
ReplyDeleteStephanie, my mom used to teach us what those candies were by the shape of them before we got the cheat sheet kind. LOL Squares are caramels (my favorite of all). Rectangles are nougats of some kind, usually. Round are cremes. The nut kind and coconut (ugh) you can see usually. LOL I got to be an expert by the time I was about 7 or 8. LOL
DeleteKathy Douglas cause she loved Snoopy figure that came with Whitman sampler
ReplyDeleteMy favorite valentine candy is anything with pb or caramel with chocolate
DeleteWoot !!
DeleteI’d say Karilyn Bentley, sent Snoopy & The heart shaped chocolate.
ReplyDeleteOh I love milk chocolate especially wit nuts but a good dark chocolate is great too.
Great !!
DeleteI have to go with the chocolate buttercream so good.
ReplyDeleteMy husband would agree if you add pecans.
DeleteI think Kathy Douglas sent the Snoopy and chocolates. And Angi nibbles. My favorite candies are anything with milk chocolate and peanut butter. Thank you for the chance! :)
ReplyDelete.......and you are correct !
DeleteKathy Douglas, because of her quote "I like the Whitman's Samplers because they used to have Snoopy figurines with the box and I love Snoopy."
ReplyDeleteMy fave is the Reese's pb hearts/
YES !!
DeleteKathy Douglas, Angi Morgan
ReplyDeleteAwesome, BN
DeleteKathy Douglas for the Snoopy because she loves Snoopy figurines. The heart shape box could be from anyone since most of the authors love boxed chocolates
ReplyDeleteTrue ! Cheryl Pierson used to get them from her father.
DeleteI am picky about boxed chocolate brands... love chocolate with nuts!
DeleteI'm a pincher...guess that makes me super picky
DeleteThis has been so much fun. I've enjoyed reading the comments from everyone about all the candy and preferences. I truthfully just love chocolate of any kind--except the time when I turned 6 and Mom bought me a German chocolate cake. It was the only chocolate cake they had and of course, German chocolate has dreaded coconut in the icing. :(((( We'd just moved and Mom didn't have any of her kitchen stuff unpacked, so she had to buy a cake that year for me. She did the best she could, under the circumstances, but I will always remember how I took a bite of that "chocolate" cake and the coconut was so overpowering--more so than the chocolate flavor. LOL But as for chocolate candy--I will eat any of it...except the ones with coconut in them.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks to GLIAS for hosting this wonderful Valentine shindig! Such fun and a great pleasure to be included!
It has to be sugar free! No wonder SOME of us are not so sweet anymore! But that doesn't stop us from writing great stories!
ReplyDeleteFANTASTIC advertising!
My favourite candy is red cinnamon hearts. My favourite chocolate is Lindt milk chocolate.
ReplyDeleteSnoopy question - Kathy Douglas
ReplyDeleteAngi I do the same thing with the boxed candy, I take a bite and if I don't like it my husband will eat it. He'll eat anything chocolate and I'm picky.
Angi likes to pinch or bite. Kathy Douglas collects Snoopy and likes Whitman Chocolate which I think it says on the box.
ReplyDeleteI Love The Heart Shaped Red Hots...
ReplyDeleteI also love Western books that include children...
I love dots. All these books sound so good.
ReplyDeleteI left 2 comments and both of them have been deleted or something i matched people up
ReplyDeleteHow fun! Hope you all have a lovely Valentines!
ReplyDeleteMy guess is Kathy Douglas! :)
ReplyDeleteThere aren't many types of Valentine's candy out there that I don't love! My fav is Milk Chocolate Salted Caramels from Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory.
I love how Linda thinks, I'd totally go for the box of chocolates too since there are so many kinds to sample! And Angi, you know you have a keeper of a husband when he'll eat the stuff you don't want!
ReplyDeleteI don’t know who sent what but I love all of the chocolate in the box
