Help with left-over candy

Happy Halloween, all! 
It's a day full of candy, for those of you who are going Trick-or-Treating. After you're probably left with a lot of can candy and don't know what to do with it. If you're like me you can probably save it in the fridge or basket and have your husband eat it lol. So I was reading this email and it had an idea for these extra sweets.

  • An Advent calendar from Alphamom.com
  • As a special dessert after having lunch all together (as a family).
  • Use it to fill a Christmas stockings.
  • Keep it in your purse when you need to quiet your kid lol ssshhh.
  • Put it in your baking recipes.
  • Chopped for toppings on ice cream or on top of whipped cream with strawberries!
  • How about this one I saw on parenting.com: add it into some vodka and let it soak for a chocolate flavored cocktail. (I don't know if it's good, so let me know if you try).
  • Save it for guests
  • Maybe if you're kid's birthday is coming up, you can save it for goodie bags :) hey you have to save in times like these lol. 
These are some things you can do with your Halloween candy. Have your little one help you out, so they can feel like a big kid. They can help make the calendar, they can fill a stocking, sprinkle on a cake or frosting, or even hand some out to your guests.
