The Best (And Worst) Easter Candy Of All Time
NY Daily News

Easter is an awesome holiday. It's one of my favorite holidays to spend with my family. During Easter, we are able to come together as a family and laugh, eat and play together. One of my favorite traditions that we have with my family is Easter egg hunting. The best part about finding Easter eggs is the candy that is stuffed inside. Everyone has their own personal ranking of Easter candy. Here's my list of the best and the worst Easter candy ever.

1. Cadbury Mini Eggs

These are the Holy Grail of Easter candy. Cadbury Mini Eggs are basically high-quality M&Ms. If you get a bag of these for Easter, cherish them. Or eat the whole bag. Whatever makes you happy.

2. Starburst Jellybeans

Nothing says Easter like Starburst Jellybeans. These little balls of fruity joy are the best jellybeans out there. Some of my favorite memories include finding eggs stuffed to the brim with these things. It's all the flavor of a Starbust, but jammed packed into a tiny jellybean. These are pure happiness.

3. Reese's Eggs

These are amazing. I swear the egg shaped Reese's taste better than the normal cups! Eating these for a solid week may or may not be on my schedule after Easter.

4. Chocolate Bunny (Hollow)

The hollow chocolate bunnies are the best. The hollow kind allows you to eat a chocolate bunny without cracking a tooth. The solid chocolate bunnies can be overwhelming and messy. Hollow is simple. Simple is the necessity to Easter candy.

5. Cadbury Eggs

These are delicious. The orange creme that fills the inside of the egg makes my mouth water. You can't go wrong with Cadbury during the Easter season.

6. Butterfinger Nest Eggs


Usually, Butterfingers are not my go-to sweet treat. However, in egg form, they become a little bit better tasting. If you like Butterfingers, go for these. I, however, would stay loyal to Reece's and the Cadbury Mini Eggs.

7. Mini Robin Eggs


These are a hit and miss. If you're a fan of Whoppers, you probably enjoy these little egg crisps. Mini Robin Eggs get points for being festive, but they are still kind of gross.

8. Solid Milk Chocolate Bunny

While these are cute and festive, these are a pain to eat. The chocolate is not nearly as good on these as they are on the hollow chocolate bunnies. Plus, you will probably die eating one of these in one sitting. I would pass on these.

9. Easter Egg Gum

While these were fun to get as a kid, as an adult I do not appreciate them as much. The flavor goes away within two seconds of chewing, and there are better options of Easter candy out there. Pass.

10. Peeps

The only place Peeps need to be on Easter is in the trash. Do not buy these for yourself and do not buy these for anyone you love. Be better than the Peeps. Throw them away and do not look back.

There you have it! The Easter season brings tons of yummy choices of treats to buy. Make sure to buy discounted chocolate after the 16th! You won't want to miss any opportunity to stock up on chocolate around the house. If you're tempted to buy Peeps, just remember that you're better than that.

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant

There's always chaos in the restaurant business.

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant
Brisanis

Working in the restaurant industry is possibly the most fundamentally challenging occupation I have ever experienced when it comes to hospitality and customer service. When you go to a five-star restaurant you expect the time of your life, a two hour getaway, a walk through another time period (rustic Italy, France, Spain, etc), or simply a honeymoon undergo. What you don't see are the behind the scenes scut work: carrying trays, polishing glassware and silverware, kitchen chaos, the list is endless. Now, I'm not saying being a host, server, or bartender is the worst thing in the whole wide world, there are definitely worse things. But the fact of the matter is that it isn't always sunshine and rainbows. In the two years that I have spent in restaurant and customer service, I have spoken my share of expletives, yelled at kitchen staff, and dealt with not-so-happy guests. It isn't easy to keep a bright and shiny smile on your face when all you want to do is choke every person who walks near you. Anyone who has spent even two weeks working in a restaurant understands the rigor and stress that comes with it. Restaurant culture is a tiny world in and of itself that operates on its own principles and creates its own society. It even has its own language. The sayings "runner", "corner", and "on a bus" wouldn't make sense to anyone otherwise. My mother and I both work in a restaurant and the best advice I can give someone going out to eat is to treat us like people. Yes...believe it or not we are people, people. Say "please" and "thank you", or stack your cleared plates before a busser gets to the table. Trust me, the gesture goes a lot farther than you may think.

So, if you work in a restaurant, you can relate with the following points. If not, check out how the brain of a restaurant service (or any customer service) worker actually works. See if you can identify any crazy weird habits your friends have a tendency to partake in.

One of the scariest things we will ever face in our life is going to college. Many of us move away to a new town, join new organizations, and make new friends. We are expected to study, have a social life, relationships, maybe work, and be healthy. It seems pretty easy to do, and in high school all we wanted to do was graduate and move on to this next chapter of our lives. If you are in high school, here are some things that you can learn from before you get to college. If you have already been through your freshman year of college, hopefully you can relate to the things I have learned in college.
