I have made those without the top pretzel and adding an M&M onto the top. (You put it on after you take it out of the oven when the Hershey's kiss is a little melted). It resembles an eyeball just enough to make it a good Halloween treat, especially if you use Halloween colored M&M's.
The first time I made these, I melted the kisses under a broiler a little too long. They end up getting hard, not melting all over the place like you would think. You only need to put them in for a very short while - maybe a minute.

Have you started making Gluhwein yet? I discovered it on the Holiday Wine Trail and now DH is requesting. I cannot wait to mix up a huge old pot full for family Christmas Saturday. I fear two bottles is too few.
I need a neighbor like yours, of course I do have a mother that is quite the enabler. Chocolate and a bottle of red- what an influence she is! Glad I don't like chocolate pretzels!

New Rule
No pics of anything with more than 35 calories while it's too dang cold to get on the bike and burn it off.
I opened this thread, like everyone else, thinking - hmmm, I think I'll go get caught up in someone's neighborly conflict for a few minutes....
PURE EVIL - chocolate, pretzels, and pictures no less

Deb- My husband went and rode yesterday, 46 miles. Psycho boy, I stayed in bed with a horrendous headache and woke up singing the praises of central heat and down comforters. I prefer running but it needs to get back to 40, it is miserable in the area today!!

Your husband is superman in my book.
I was scheduled for a mammogram early this morning and drove through the 34 degree freezing precip to get there. Sure enough, I passed a guy out running on the way home (no cyclists though) and I thought, "darn, I wish I had that kind of motivation!" He wasn't even wearing a hat (but he was wearing ear warmers)
Maybe it'll clear up later and I'll go around the block at least, just to get my ever-growing butt in the saddle
