My DH bought a very large pumpkin, as it sits on my dining room table...."The Best Laid Plans of Mice and Men Often Go Awry"
I remember last year. DH bought huge amounts of candy, the good ones.
I told him that as soon as Halloween is over, get rid of it. OK he says.
Three days later the huge bowel is still sitting there so I poured it all in the trash. and didn't eat any!
Like someone once told me, once the money is spent, it's gone whether you eat it or throw it in the trash.
