The first bit of color was from a...well, it's not a pastry. I guess it could be a confection. Anyway, it's a variation of a Rice Krispie treat, except without any Rice Krispies in it:
As far as I could tell, it had Cap'n Crunch, Boo Berries, Choco Puffs,
and Fruit Loops. The taste was rather...interesting. But I saw it
under the glass and had to try one.
(Apologies for the poor lighting; I think I need to rig a diffuser.)
The other bit of color is a knickknack on my desk. There was a study released this week
that said if you have candy around but can't see it, you're going to
eat less of it (something to consider especially this time of year):
This is a regular bottle that I filled with Nerds and then topped with
Everlasting Gobstoppers, two fine Willy Wonka candy products that I
call "sugar-coated sugar."
Even though it sits prominently in my field of view, at this point,
it's just decorative. That's because it's full. The second I start
dipping into it, all bets are off.
Anyway, that should be it for this week. We'll be covering some more substantive matters next week. Have a good weekend. -- Joe

That first treat...hmm. You gotta keep em separated! I think it would taste better if it were ONE kind of cereal. That is too much of a hodge podge. LOL

They both are very pretty and colorful to say the least. You have a good weekend Joe. Helen
Sooooo what did the "rice crispie treat" really taste like?
Regarding the taste: Let's just say that is was a one-time thing. -- Joe
I like the lighting the first one. A diffuser would lose that cool monolith candy shadow. Adds depth. The second is a classic!
Nerds and everlasting gobstoppers??? Where's the Runts??? Marry me.. I'll figure out how to tell the soon to be ex later!!! I'm so SICKLY into the Wonka ya' know!!! Penny
