Santa PezHere at NCA we wish you a very happy holiday. We wish you warmth, peace and love, whether you are a hard candy person, a gummy-loving person like Tori or a chocolate person like the Susans. Even if you love things like circus peanuts, like I do, you are in the fold and among the appreciated. We are all about the equal-opportunity love here.

This all leads me to ask what your favorite Christmas/Hanukkah/solstice/Kwanzaa/HolidaySeason candy is. I think mine is anything with a minty flavor, like candy canes, chocolate, mints covered in chocolate and even mint candies without chocolate. Normally I would say circus peanuts because they are lord over all candies, but Susan has corrected me and informed me that they are not seasonal fare.

Regardless, this is what I am bringing to my friends’ house for Christmas dinner as an appetizer:

So what’s your favorite holiday candy? What are you setting out as a seasonal treat?
