Santa's Dilemma
Just like the rest of us, Santa is sometimes at a loss when it comes to gift giving. But if he has candy lovers on his list, he can usually pacify them with a candy gift. He first got the idea for giving candy gifts from one of his elves. It seems that Santa called a meeting of his elves to brainstorm about gift giving to people who haven't given him a list. Most elves really got into that kind of meeting, but one was really disrespecting Santa by leaving the room to take calls on his cell phone and sending text messages. Santa quickly rectified the situation by sending this elf away. Once the negative energy was gone, one of the elves had a great idea.

"Santa, why not give those people candy gifts?" he asked.

"Why, that's a great idea! What kinds of candy gifts?" Santa asked.

"Anything! Everyone loves chocolate, so chocolate gift towers and gift boxes of chocolates would be just dandy! And for teachers, you could give them a coffee filled with candy," he replied.

Another elf piped in with, "What about peppermints and candy canes?"

And another said, "Yeah, and a lot of people really like peanut brittle and caramel corn. You can make some great candy gifts with that. Especially if we can get Mrs. Claus to make hers!"

Yet another offered, "I make really good fudge and divinity. Maybe I can make some candy gifts that include those."

With that, Santa assigned certain elves with confectionary abilities to make candy gifts and put the rest on toy duty, Mrs. Claus agreed to make her famous peanut brittle, and everyone had a Merry Christmas!
