Ever wonder what goes through people's minds at church when they choose to open the loudest candy wrappers during the quietest part of the service? Do you think they intentionally grab the packaged Runts and stale peppermint stars? Or are they the genuine diabetic who has a diaper bag full of emergency uppers? What really gets me is how they try to open them oh-so-slowly, elongating the dreaded "crinkle-crinkle" up to a minute's duration. Why not get it over with like a Band-Aid? Or fake a sneeze or cough as a cover-up?
Sam and I have found the solution to smuggling in church candy: Ziplocs! Open up those nifty little wrappers before leaving home, dump the sugary contents into a snack-size ziploc...and TAH-DAH: quiet candy at your fingertips! Well, quiet of course until we start chewing the hard candy...or until I steal a pink Starburst from Sam!

Tara...you are a good writer! I didn't know. :) Ziplocs, ziplocs... You know the church I go to averages about 12 and we sit in a circle basically. It's pretty obvious when i eat candy which i figured is better that i do since everyone can probably hear my stomach growl. Picturing you two like kids with candy is REAL cute
