    Who doesn't like candied apples or even caramel apples. My favorites that are sweet and in a way healthy.

    lol The dentist! My daughter trick or treated at the shopping center with dentist’s office. I asked him why he was handing out candy and not dental floss or something. He laughed and said he wants to take another vacation to the Caribbean 🤣
