With that title, you’d think I’d have a photo, but I don’t. I haven’t even posted a Photo Friday photo yet, which I always do in the wee hours of Friday morning, as soon as I get the theme just after midnight. This week’s theme is “Strength,” and I got nothing. Maybe later…
The scene of the crime my title refers to is my living room. I had to run some errands today, and when I finished getting ready and started to leave the house, I heard a crunching noise from the area of the sofa. Last night when we watched several more episodes of The Young and the Restless (we were a week and a half behind because of Tim’s incarceration hospitalization), I set the bowl of leftover Halloween candy on the coffee table for easy reach. There wasn’t much left. Some Smarties, two or three Tootsie Roll Pops, some Sugar Mamas, and a few Pixie Sticks (don’t judge me–the best stuff had been eaten already).
I’d say sometime in the next few hours a certain dog whose initials are Guinness will probably need Kaopectate. The living room floor was littered with chewed up candy wrappers and the only things left in the bowl were a few Pixie Sticks.
(Edit: As Tim noted, I failed to listen to The Compound Dogs’ advice post-Halloween.)
Pixie Sticks
See, even the canine culprit knew which ones were fakes and which ones were the goods. LOL

PS I love your new banner. It’s very beautiful. 😀
Re: Pixie Sticks
Thank you. =)
(Am I the ONLY person or dog in the world who actually likes Pixie Sticks?)
Re: Pixie Sticks
Nope definitely not. If I had been there with a certain dog, there would be NO Pixie Stix left at all.
I loved them as a child, but I haven’t had them in years. I understand that the straw is no longer paper. Sigh! I used to chew them to get the final flavor from the package.
Re: Pixie Sticks
My daughter likes Pixie Stix. The huge ones are in plastic, but at least around here, the small ones are still in paper.
“…a certain dog whose initials are Guinness…”
HAHAHA
i found that particularly amusing.
OMG Pixie Sticks! I love them. I add just a hint of water to them and make MUD. And then I eat it. Yummy goodness. I bet Guinness loved it, too. And then the sugar rush kicked in. Woot!
*I do hope her tummy will be okay.*
That just sounds gross!!
Oh come on Gary. You know you wanna try. It’s good stuff man. Everybody is doin it.
Make that everyubody but me. LOL
Don’t beat yourself up. I’m thankful it wasn’t a bowl of squash on the coffee table. : )
I couldn’t find Smarties anywhere this year. =(
I hope there’s not a shortage of them, or panic will ensue in Ohio.
(That makes sense to someone, I promise.)
I’m afraid things are not looking good for Victor and Nikki, not good at all.
Well, it never helps your marriage to blow up a town that your whole family’s been trying to restore.
