Left Over Easter Candy Ideas

Now that Easter is over with we have a lot of candy that we really don't need in the house, especially if you want to be ready for summer.  So here are a few ideas to help you get rid of the candy.  Also they are slightly better than just eating the candy straight.

Gluten Free Easter Candy List

Want to make sure that the Easter bunny doesn’t make anyone sick this year.  The best way to do that is to know what Easter candies are safe.  This is the regular list, and does not include specialty made products at a health food store.  Each of these items you can probably find at any supermarket right now.  Sadly Cadbury Cream Eggs are not on this list and might not be for some years to come. Remember to always check the label and look for key words like processed with wheat.  Although most have become really good about listing gluten containing items, please be careful.  Each item on this list is gluten free according to the manufacturer and of course some independent research (ok yes I ate them).  However, I still managed to lose 10 lbs this month (yes really) so it appears that chocolate is good for me (laa, fantasy world and unicorns)

Homemade Gluten Free Easter Candy

I spent all day on the internet for you (cough, myself) looking for some of the best sounding gluten free and lactose free candy recipes.  I have found a few that you have to give a shot.  They sound so yummy.  I know that I will be doing these once I get a chance.  

14 Days of Romance -Intro-

Starting February 1st, I will be doing a segment called 14 days of romance.  The idea behind this to that not everyone can afford a fancy dinner out as well as a large gift and flowers or chocolate.  However, you might be able to afford small gestures every day.  Besides, 14 days worth of romance are much better than one large gesture.
