It was a tough Halloween in St. Louis, there was cold rain all day and
well into the evening. I two largish groups and few outliers. That
means I have about a bag each of little Milky Way and 100 Grand bars
left (oh darn).

In the interest of science, I did some experiments with the latter in
the microwave. Ten seconds was too long, hot molten caramel inside firm
chocolate -- OW! Seven seconds was about right, extra warm and gooey.
