5. They ARE hard to find.

All the more precious.

And always at the top of my Christmas list each year. :9


(I knew there had to be another fan around here somewhere!)

:thumbsup:

6. Howard can kiss my butt.






There is NO WAY he is getting ANY of these babies back.

They are MINE, all MINE! I will defend them with my life!
















(Though if he actually does kiss my butt, I might give him ONE mint, just to be polite. Butt breath, and all.)

12. That's funny. I always used to call them that.


Until I inquired about them at a candy store and was educated as to the fact that they are "C. Howard's Violet Mints." But the logo does make it look like "Choward's," doesn't it? I wonder how many other people call them "Choward's."

I wonder if they lose any business because of that. That would - uh - suck.

14. You said "suck"
:D

I had some clam choward with NSMA. It was yummy. No violet aftertaste at all, though.

15. They ARE addictive.


I can see where craving them might lead to a life of crime.

Maybe we should start a 12 step group.
