Canadians, come in!
The husband is in Toronto to watch a soccer game, and he has to bring back presents for his very understanding and supportive wife. He has already been instructed to bring back some Timbits so I can see what everyone was talking about the other day.
Can I get a list of the cool candy and other things that I may not know exist?
Re: Canadians, come in!
Coffee Crisp chocolate bar
Caramilk chocolate bar
Aero chocolate bar (you can always get regular chocolate... and mint. Lately I have been seeing orange ones, too.)
Ketchup flavoured chips
Nanaimo bars
Butter tarts

They are very, very good indeed.
They aren't too much fun to make -- but they are worth it. Here is a typical looking recipe. (Just be sure to use butter and not margarine!
