A lot of those look familiar. The ones with the Hershey's Kiss in the middle, my grandmother would make around the holidays. Along with some German traditional treats. Always a good time.
What is the white square thing in the picture? It looks like a salt block I would put out for the deer in the winter.

As any good cook knows, you have to balance sweet with salt! Makes it all taste better.

But it does look like a small salt lick

Between cycling, running, swimming and the gym I burn more than12MJ (about 3000 diet calories) above my BMR every day. I get to eat a lot without paying a price on my waist line. Cook tries to fatten me up, but it doesn't work.
One of my favourites is her jambalaia (Provencal btw), a slightly fatty mish-mash of different meats and vegetable, served any way you like. There is usually a big pot of it in the refrigerator that I snack on. When the children wander in for food in the morning I reheat and serve it on rye toast to keep them going until breakfast. Sometimes an egg or grated cheese on top.
