Easter was yesterday and you know what that means for today....lots of leftover candy.
Today that may be okay. But by Wednesday, all that candy laying around will mean real trouble. What do you do with it (besides eat it and gain 10 pounds)?
Here are a few options to think about:
- Throw it out!- This might not make the kids happy, but it will definitely save you a few pounds.
- Hide it- I'm not really a big candy eater. I do like to have a piece or two occasionally. For years I've hidden/saved one holiday's candy until the next, eating a piece or three when I wanted it. It allowed me to get it "out of sight, out of mind" and stretch out the calories.
- Take it to work/church/school- Who dosen't love to see a welcoming candy dish on your office desk? It can brighten a visitor's day and help make the day a little sweeter.
- Decorate another project with it- This is one of my favorite ideas. I like to get creative with food and this is a really fun way. Once you're done you could eat it, but I usually like to toss it if it's been on display for a while. Check out our Easter creation that we made for dessert. It was so much fun for the kids to help with and it made a great dessert to share with our visiting family.

Whether you throw it out, share it, hide it, or get creative, you're sure to be one step closer to Getting it All Together.
