This one goes way back...right back to the 80's actually.
I remember going to Tupperware parties with my mom. It seemed there was a Tupperware party at least once a month back when I was young. Maybe that's how people socialized back then. ;)
When I was somewhere around Jr. High School, maybe 7th grade, we got these Tupperware funnels at one of those parties. The "Tupperware Lady" taught us a trick that night. My big sister, Loma, and I, made these for our closest Jr. High School friends as Valentines gifts back then.
After Christmas this last year, I was left with a ginormous surplus of mini marshmallows. I must have got a bunch on sale with the intentions of making more Moose Munch. That stuff is just unbelievably yummy...if you haven't tried it you should! Okay, back to the mini marshmallows...
So many marshmallows...what would I do with them??? There's always Rice Krispies Treats. That will use up some, but I wanted to do something different. That's when my mind wandered waaaay back to about 1983...
We used to take these funnels and use them as molds for fudge:

| I sprayed the inside with non-stick cooking spray first. Once the fudge was in I propped it in a small glass to sit in the fridge and cool.
( This picture makes me realize how badly I want to change my countertops.
!Aye aye aye! ) Sorry, back to the subject at hand. I drifted... Once the fudge was cooled completely, I carefully dumped it out of the funnel "mold" and placed it flat side down on a square of tin foil.  
Mine came out nice and easy, but if you have any trouble you could dip the funnel in warm water for a second, or wrap a warm towel around the outside to loosen it up a bit. See how nice it turned out! Don't you just want a bite?  Now it was time to add a personal touch. In Microsoft Word, I typed "Sherry's Kisses" over and over again in a similar shade as the blue that HERSHEY'S KISSES is typed in. I kept this one really simple for sharing purposes, but you could type out an entire love message on your strip of paper ~ if you wanted. Or a "Thank You For Your Friendship" message. Whatever works. Maybe a teacher Valentine. I know I would love a big kiss like this!   All that's left to do is wrap it up and give your kiss to somebody special.           We are so glad you've stopped by and we hope you've enjoyed your time here. We would really, really, really LOVE IT if you wanted to follow along with us.
