Piniatas

well apparently hitting pinatas was to voilent and to many precious angels got hurt so now they all have pull strings. Whats the fun in that?! First the blind folds go and now the stick!  Second. When deciding on healthier alternatives for filling said piniatas Some people (me) suggested Rings, Necklaces, Bracelets and just a little bit of candy...gotta have some candy right? Others (who will remain nameless) thought filling it with granola or trail mix would be an acceptable alternative. I wanna know what kind of wierd crazy parties this person went to as a child cause i didnt get to do to many pinatas but I can only imagine the mutiany that would follow a pinata full of trail mix. Seriously can you picture that?!!
