Nothing exciting happened today (other than apple butter lattes, me trying to get admin pissed at me and panic attacks) so have something you've been asking for. My candy recs
So the Hershey Haul....I haven't eaten it all yet because there's only so much candy a diabetic should eat (none) but here are my thoughts
Chocolate Lava Peanut Butter cups - so it's supposed to have ooey gooey chocolate lava. Bag #1 (since PB cups are my favorites) Dad got one and I got one that oozed into the packaging. The rest were just normal cups with super soft centers making it hard to get it out of its paper panties. Bag two had a thin layer of what might be chocolate lava, barely noticeable.
Verdict - get normal ones. they're cheaper than this rip off
Hazelnut kisses - I'm still not a fan of nuts in chocolate even if I like the nuts
Brownie Bites Kisses - tasted like brownies. Pretty good
Pumpkin Spice Latte treasure nugget - tastes like its name. wee bit artificial but not bad
Caramel Machiatto latte treasure nugget - um...no caramel, no coffee, just tastes like milk chocolate which is nice enough but this is one of the Hershey store only special chocolates so I wanted more flavor, more specialness
Cafe Espresso treasure nugget - strong coffee taste, yummy (another special)
special bars, salty caramel and strawberry creme. I should have looked closer. They're both white chocolate. I'm not a fan of white chocolate. That said. Salty caramel tasted more like coconut (looked like toasted coconut) good but not quite caramel. Strawberry creme tastes like strawberry quick.
Caramel special nuggets, large (expensive as fuck compared to the rest), bigger about two inch cubes, very good caramel, gooey.
I still have more to try.
Actually wrote something
Title: Pushing Up the AnteFandom: Hazbin Hotel
Summary: All Husker wanted was a friendly game of Texas hold ‘em to entertain his fellow overlords. One of them doesn’t get the message and in his attempts to take out Husker, the ante gets bigger until they’re all in.
Rating: teen
Author Note - This was inspired by
lurkingsky on Bluesky who was running a DTYIS for this fantastic picture of Husk right
here. I’m no artist but this picture told me a story so I wrote it (and seriously, go check out that great picture of Husk!)
This is set some time before Husk lost it all so probably a handful of years before Charlie’s plans for the hotel. And there will be a few alterations to how Texas hold ‘em is played (you’ll see what I mean)
