Reece's It Is

As grandparents we love to spoil our grandchildren every so often. My four-year-old grandson makes it easy for me when it comes to treating him to candy every once in a while. The thing is, is that he doesn't like chocolate or peanut butter delights. So, when I take him to the sweetshops, I let him pick out what he wants. There is one snack that he always picks out. Keep in mind, he doesn't like chocolate or peanut butter...because the one thing he always usually picks out is Reese's Peanut Butter Cups" Go figure... he hates chocolate and he hates peanut butter but he likes- Reece's

oh the humour here is priceless Charlie lol. I had never heard of Reece's peanut butter cups until someone mentioned it and I managed to obtain the dark choc ones at a specialist sweet shop. Never seen them since but we can get the orange packs lol:-) hugs Jan xx

a funny story. I've learned that I can't ever predict what my grandchildren will like...seems to change with every minute. Your story, though, is priceless. Thanks for your creative spin. Have a great day!
