Is This Enough Candy To Wind Up Two Little Boys...

My cousin has two pre-teen boys (9-11). Walker and I decided that it would be fun to wind them up, and give them a really happy sugar-coated Easter. My cousin is Mormor and Morfar's 3rd grandchild, my sister and I are the other two. So these little Christensens are their great-grandkids. I had the good fortune to grow up right around the corner from Mormor and Morfar, but these fellas all live in Quebec. Mormor and Morfar died when the children were very young. There's just something about a chocolate-coated holiday like Easter, and the memory of my grandparents (especially Morfar, the king of the candy lovers!!!), that compells me to buy chocolate, at times. Listening to Morfar's favourite Danish music on my iPhone with the goal to buy chocolate for his great-grandsons prompted me to buy WAAAY MORE than I had planned, but oh well. That's what Morfar always did, and I'm sure that's what he'd want me to do. So, what do you think? Is this enough to make 'em nice and hyper?

I think it's enough candy to make those 2 boys hyper for the rest of the month! And, your cousin may never speak to you again! Thanks for sharing your dastardly plan with us!

LOL You're very welcome. If my grandparents were still around, the kids would be eternally sugar-loaded, so the least we can do is wind them up for a weekend. It'll be great. We go up there, get 'em all wound up, and a few days later, we're back in Ontario!! hahahahahahahaha *evil laugh*

I imagine all that running around they're going to do will burn off all the bat. That's the nice thing about suga. Makes 'em hyper, and hyper people excercise!
