Y’all have to see the wonderful box of chocolates that imsirius sent my boys from Canada! I don’t think I’ll need to bake any sweets this week, or maybe next!  (Dh just came downstairs and saw the box and raided it - it looks like it will be split 3-ways.  )    Eta: In my excitement over the chocolate, I forgot to say THANK YOU!  |

Lovely! When I was in Canada this summer I stocked up in Aero and Mirage bars! I am sure the people at Soebys were wondering why there was a crazy lady buying all the chocolate and taking pictures of all the food! To bad she couldn’t send any of the Coffee Crisp milk, that was delicious!! Lucky lady elaine |

Nice haul!
I think this is the first Christmas ever that my kids don't have Smarties in their stockings. I usually plan way ahead and squirrel away a couple of boxes.

That was super nice!!
I’m in California and don’t know much about Canadian products. Are Canadian sweets and candy superior to what we have here? This isn’t first time I’ve seen major excitement over Canadian goodies.

This isn’t first time I’ve seen major excitement over Canadian goodies. I think so. Your chocolate has a higher wax content. Ours is more like British chocolate and not waxy like Hershey's. |

Oh wow, that takes me back a bit! My parents used to go to Canada to visit relatives (the were both born there) every year and would always return with boxes and boxes of chocolates for us. Coffee Crisp was a must have. Also Aero bars and Mackintosh toffee. For a surprise for her birthday a few years ago, I mail ordered a few boxes of Coffee Crisp and Aero bars for her. She was thrilled. What a sweet thing for imsirius to do for you and your boys. |

Well, maybe its better for me because I used to love that stuff. I hate when companies change their recipes after years of getting us used to it tasting a certain way. Don't they realize they stand to lose a large fan base? |
