Trick-or-Treat Yourself
With 2021’s Trendiest Candies!
use these as an easy reward for chores or good behavior. DINDON FRUITY’S JU-C JELLY FRUIT CANDY These jelly-bursting candies sparked a TikTok craze in 2021! Although they’re a bit pricey, many people were excited by the interesting, but tricky, way that you eat this unique treat. Basically, the candy is fruit jelly set in a thin plastic, fruit-shaped mold, and you have to bite into the candy in order to break the plastic and burst the jelly into your mouth. Some say the most successful way of eating Ju-C Jelly Fruit is by biting as far into the fruit as you can, or pressing near the long end of plastic so the jelly breaks out at the short end. Others say the secret is prayer. Give it a try! With five classic flavors (apple, grape, orange, strawberry, and pineapple), you’ll be sure to find this experience quite yummy. DANDELION CHOCOLATE Maybe your tastes are a little more refined — that’s where Dandelion Chocolate comes in. In 2021, chocolate enthusiasts have been buzzing about Dandelion’s “bean-to-table” approach toward their chocolate. Exclusively produced from small-batch craft producers, this chocolate is truly special with an artisan’s hand managing every step of the way, from processing to flavoring. Add this to your next wine night and impress the crowd! Even though kids get to enjoy free candy on Halloween, adults get to enjoy any kind of candy they want, and whenever they want it — that’s a pretty good trade-off. We hope you’ll give a few of these sweet treats a try!
You’ve just taken your kids trick-or-treating, but, as your sore feet finally get to rest, you’re left with a powerful craving for sweets. If you don’t enjoy the cheaper, classic candies from your child’s Halloween haul, then it’s time for the adults to treat themselves. Here’s a few trendy candies that you’ll love, and you don’t have to wait for Halloween to enjoy them either! SNEAKY STARDUST Most sour candies are named to inspire fear, but Sneaky Stardust is an adorable name for this sweet and sour gum powder candy! What is gum powder, you ask? With an initial sweet texture almost like Pixie Dust, this candy powder turns into gum in your mouth! It’s definitely a magic trick, hence the name Sneaky Stardust. You’ll love the packaging of this candy just as much, though. It comes in brightly colored resealable jugs that almost look like sweet tea jugs. You’ll find three sour flavors available on the market: Sour Blue Raspberry, Sour Green Apple, and Sour Strawberry. KIDSMANIA SODA CAN FIZZY CANDY Do you remember the fizzy candies from the 1990s and early 2000s? If you want a nostalgic flashback, you don’t need a time machine. Not dissimilar to a six-pack of soda, Soda Can Fizzy Candy comes in a miniature six-pack of plastic cans with four different flavors: Lemon-Lime Sprint, Loca Cola, Grape Splash, and Orange Crash. You’ll love just how adorably fun-size these candies are, plus you get several different flavors in one box. They should be relatively easy to find at a local Walmart or you can buy in bulk on The Wholesale Candy Store ($12) or Amazon ($18). If your kids like them, you could even

If you had to get surgery in the early 1800s, it could be a death sentence. Before the invention of anesthesia, patients needing amputations and other operations were awake and lucid the entire time. Plus, surgery looked more like something from a horror movie than a lifesaving procedure. And it was during this era that Dr. Robert Liston, who was ironically considered one of the best surgeons of his day, performed the deadliest surgery of all time. Before getting into the particulars of what transpired during the surgery itself, you should know a little bit about Dr. Liston. Sure, he was a professional surgeon, but he was also a product of his time. He likely worked with dirty saws and knives while wearing a bloody apron in an unsanitary operating room. He was also named the “fastest knife in the West End” by medical historian Dr. Richard Gordon. He was known for performing surgeries very quickly, which, in the days before anesthesia, was as much as patients could hope for on the operating table. Only 1 in 10 of his patients died on the operating table, which sounds bad until you learn that a nearby hospital reported 1 in 4 people dying from similar procedures. Also, in those days, much like crowds used to gather to watch a hanging, people found amputations to be morbidly entertaining — and who wouldn’t want to watch the fastest knife in the West End at work? So, on the fateful day of that deadly surgery, Dr. Liston, ever the showman, cut through his patient’s broken, infected leg with incredible speed — so incredible that he didn’t realize he had cut off two of his assistant’s fingers in the process. Both later died of gangrene (remember the unsanitary tools?). But theirs were not the only deaths that day. When Dr. Liston went for one of his knives, he whipped it about a little too closely to one spectator, slicing through his coat. While he didn’t actually break the man’s skin with his knife, the spectator thought he’d been stabbed and died of shock right there in the operating room. So, instead of saving one life, Dr. Liston killed three people. It’s the only known surgery to have resulted in a 300% mortality rate. The Deadliest Surgery in History Performed by the ‘Fastest Knife in the West End’

Achieve Mise en Place The perfect philosophy for organizing your kitchen is mise en place : Everything needs to have its place. So, it’s time for those lids to stop piling up in a corner of your cabinet and pots to be stored properly! Here are a few DIY ideas that’ll make the tasks even easier: door, hang your measuring cups, and close. You can use stick-on hooks or drill a small bar of wood inside and attach hooks to the bar. This works great with any small utensils, but it works best if your cabinet’s interior isn’t stacked and overflowing with items. With These DIY Kitchen Storage Ideas!
NO. 4: POT AND PAN LID STORAGE BAR
NO. 1: PEGBOARD UTENSIL AND POT ORGANIZER Add a chic touch to your kitchen and make all your pans and cooking utensils easy to grab with a pegboard! Not only are pegboards constructed rather sturdily, but you can also paint and use metal hook inserts to hold all sorts of kitchen tools, from heavy pans to kitchen scissors. NO. 2: UPCYCLED TIN CAN STORAGE Don’t throw away tin cans! Instead, keep them, repaint them, and/or label them for pastas, grains, spices, candies, snacks, and much more. Even in different sizes, you won’t run out of uses for these, since they can be potentially used as a gift container too! NO. 3: HIDDEN MEASURING CUP HOOKS Tired of your measuring cups rattling in a drawer? Put small hooks inside a cabinet
Everyone says keep your lid on, but nobody says what to do with your lid when it’s off. It’s annoying how often lids pile up inside your kitchen space — but if you install a single metal bar (yep, just one!), any lid with any type of middle grip can be stored on it. Just slide it on top, and the bar will hold up the lid, thanks to its handle preventing any fall.
BONUS — EASY CHALKBOARD MENU/GROCERY LIST
While this isn’t an “item storage” idea per se, it does make it easy to store and update your grocery list! First, use chalkboard paint on the inside (or outside) of one of your cabinets. Then, use chalk markers to create and update your weekly grocery list every time you run out of an ingredient. You can also use it for a menu during parties!
