Grown-up giveaway from See's Candies
With less than two weeks until Halloween, how about some Treats for Mommas, Dads or anyone who feels too old to go door to door without the cover of a little ghoul in tow?
It is pretty much the same treat we hand out to the kids on Halloween: chocolate. But our grown-up, sophisticated version is the delicious dressed-up-in-a-pretty-box-rather-than-at-the-bottom-of-a-pillowcase chocolate.
See’s Candies is going to send some of that confectionary love to a couple of our readers this Halloween, and the only thing tricky about this gift is choosing between a nutty nougat or a decadent truffle.
Enter to win your holiday candy by sending an email to GoMomma@tampabay.com. In the subject line, be sure you put the words "Candy giveaway." That's all you have to do. Winners will be selected in a random drawing. The two winners will receive $25 gift cards from See’s to use at their stores or online.
Better hurry, though. This offer turns into a pumpkin at midnight Wednesday, Oct. 21. All entries must be received by midnight to be eligible. Please include your name, address and a phone number in case we have to reach you. Good luck and happy chocolate treating!

THE AUTHORS
Sharon Kennedy Wynne has sunscreen in her blood. She may have been born in Buffalo but she got here as fast as she could, in time for kindergarten. She grew up in St. Petersburg, graduated from the University of Florida journalism school, and even got married at Sunken Gardens. She's one of the few adults we know who actually loves taking her kids to the beach. She has two sons and with 10 years of parenting under her belt, she's starting to feel a little less out of her league. She comes from a large family and loves to debate, so brace yourself when the hot topics come up.

Freelance writer Courtney Cairns Pastor wasn’t so sure about having kids and how she would balance child-rearing with her journalism career. It turned out that her journalism training went to good use. As the mom to a funny, active toddler, she learned to handle him like she did her sources. Never ask yes or no questions (the answer will always be no), get him to be specific (are you crying because you’re wet or your tooth hurts?) and be prepared for anything because no two days are the same. When she’s not playing trucks, Courtney crams for her book club, trains for races and occasionally bursts into showtunes. E-mail her at 
Suzannah DiMarzio has it bad for the Mouse. Although she grew up outside of Boston, she took her degree in tourism management down to Orlando just to work at Disney and the travel industry. Of course, when she married her high school sweetheart, the reception was at Disney. She’s now a seasoned stay-at-home mom to two tweens and a toddler – and yes, that is as crazy as it sounds.
