Ok I am so disappointed all of my neighbors had on at least 3 lights or more me and the kids counted twice once at 9pm and then again at 930pm just in case they forgot. Even the CEO of Fern Bank who lives behind me still had there lights on BOOOOOOOO. Ok now to the positive, these balls were the best. We have a super high going from all the natural sugar. This recipe rocked, good job izhpt. See you later in the forum chats…..
