Flying Saucers

 Have I ever mentioned that Matthew is half British? Because he totally is. Although he has only visited England once, he can pull off a very nice accent any time. And he appreciates some of the things that you can only get in England. Candy. I know that you can get candy anywhere, but there is a certain kind of British candy that Matthew likes.
 Welp, Matthew's birthday is this coming Friday, the 1st of June, and you should probably know by now that Matthew and I can't keep ANYTHING from each other, I gave him a part of his present early.

I FOUND THEM.

FLYING SAUCERS!!

I found them on a website that's based out of New Hampshire where we got 500 for $30. Money well spent, my friends. Believe you me. Flying saucers are wafers with sour powder in the middle. I know, it sounds weird, but they are addicting. Once the first one dissolves on your tongue, you're already reaching in the bucket for more.
We had a plan to save a lot for when Carrie comes to visit, but... I'm sad to announce, that didn't happen. After about 10 minutes of first opening the canister, 1/4 of it was gone. If that gives you any indication of how the next couple of days went, you should know that our stash is now depleted.
This might be one of Matthew's favorite gifts I've ever given him!
