Happy Halloween!!!!!

Gather around darlings! Today, we bring you the case of a grade A "jerk" (to put it politely). 

On Halloween night 1974, something truly sinister unfolded. The suburban community of Deer Park, TX was shaken to its core when tainted candies found their way into the hands of little kids. What they thought was the boogeyman turned out to be no more than a below average man whose callous actions cost a child his life. 
 
Instead of eating candy like normal people on Halloween, we treated ourselves to  soft almond biscotti bites. Let me tell you, it definitely wasn't dessert.
