I just left my job after 4+ years, while it is sad to say
goodbye to so many good friends, I am excited to start the next chapter in my
career at a new company. It should come
as no surprise that many people gave me candy as going-away gifts. I am smiling just thinking about it, my
friends know me so well and know that nothing makes me happier than something
sweet!
As I sit here on a snowy Sunday afternoon in April (yes,
snowy, we have had over a foot of snow this weekend) I started thinking about
candy that we have said goodbye to over the years. So, just like during all
award shows the following is my “In Memoriam” list of discontinued favorites (in no particular order) – cue music….
Feel free to add your favorites as well!
