We have been talking about doing a topic of the week inspired by the Ecency Discord chat and this week @beeber got us started with her post- Emergency Sweets- when @dickturpin told us about his emergency stash in his desk door at work.
The Ecency Discord chat is about being decent and kind and helpful to each other. We try to inspire each other to do well and have fun!
Ecency = Decency

When my kids were little I did have an emergency stash of sweets hidden in secret places around the house where no one would think to look. Often they were back behind the dish cloths and pot holders in one of the kitchen drawers. Or in the heavy cast iron Dutch oven at the back of the pantry, under the heavy lid.
But these days I live alone and can keep my stash of sweets in plain sight!
This jar full of lollipops inspired the name that my grandchildren called me when they were little. To differentiate between their two grandmothers they called me 'Lolly' because of this jar of sweet treats
The funny part was that they called their other grandmother 'Jungle' because of all the houseplants that she had in her home. Poor 'Jungle grandma' got some funny looks when we were out in public and the kids were shouting to get her attention! I have always been happy to be 'Lollipop grandma' !
This jar full of Wine Gums is all because of the Ecency chat! A while back @dickturpin mentioned that he was snacking on wine gums which caused me to remember these sweets that I first tried while touring around London in 2001. I was able to order Gustav 's Wine Gums on Amazon and I set them in an out of the way spot, otherwise I am tempted to grab a handful whenever I go past!

Lolly lolly lolly
I immediately thought of this old Schoolhouse Rock 🤣
I was always the person that people hid sweets from haha. Never really had a personal stash. My best candy story is I got to go the the candy show on Chicago's Navy Peir one year. I went with the candy buyer for our stores at the time. It was really cool.
I had forgotten about that Schoolhouse Rock segment! I did teach all the kids to sing this one, though.
Ha Ha Ha Ho Ho Ho awesome. Your song is much more on point. The Schoolhouse rock lyrics are all wrong but the Lolly Lolly Lolly refrain sticks in your head. It won't go away lol
Oh nooo ;-) now I wanna have such a wine gum. So I am not sure if it tastes the same than our "Gummi Bärli" but I guess they do.

I didn't have wine gums for years and I don't think if I buy some that I would put them in a jar. They won't last long since my wife likes them too. My wife has emergency sweet in the cabinet for her but sometimes I snoop in there if there is something for me.
What sort of sweets are you hoping to find when you go snooping? 😉
Now look at this. This is actually funny. I didn't talk to my wife about this and she didn't bought this for ages as far as I know. I woke up and I saw this:
😂😂😂
How did she know?
Hahaha! She can read your mind? 😁

!BEER
Yeah, definitely and I'm a bit scared now. I asked here why she bought it and she said it was coincidence but I don't think so. 🤔
Be careful what you think! 😳
I will just think about weird stuff when she's around to confuse her. 😂
I like chocolate or good marzipan.

Love that cone shaped dispenser top on the jellybean jar.
Those are the best lollys too.
I really like your Lolly name.
That jar is from my grandfather's garage and was used to add oil to his car! I have two spouts, but only one original glass jar. The second one fits on a mayonnaise jar and I gave it to my daughter.
They are my families favorite lollipops!
