When we were handing out our final summer edition on the second to last night of summer, Leeya was struck with an idea...We made a quick video to our future selves and the future magazine with questions and musings.
Add your Dear #FutureSelf... to the YouTube comments if you want to!
Over the past few weeks, I (Adalia) have been putting together a surprise for Leeya. Though it was a three part surprise, I could show it to Leeya all at once, so I planned a Zoom call to meet with her and show her. So, what was the surprise? Well...Watch the video to find out!

The Neighborhood's Favorite Candies!
The Neighborhood's Favorite Candies!
We surveyed 42 people and 2 dogs from 20 different households to see what our neighborhood’s favorite candy is. Out of these households Reeses was by far the top candy, followed closely by Snickers and then Twizzlers. About 67% of people’s favorite candies are chocolate based, while 27% are sugar-based. 3% of the polled people (actually dogs) enjoy dog treats as a “candy.”
In order, to make the graph concise and easier to read, we had to combine a few candies but will give them a mention here. One person liked WhatChaMaCallIt and someone else liked Pay Day so we combined it into a section of peanut brittle based candy. In addition, we learned about some new candies like Bocce (Baa-chee) which is an Italian Kiss that is bigger than the American Hershey one. We also had someone that said they liked Dark Chocolate Hershey Kisses. We also shortened Chocolate Covered Caramel M&M’s to M&M’s. Our participant let us try some which we loved and were crunchier and sweeter than regular ones. They were yummy!
