In one of my recent posts, I told a little about candy making day, well here is the "continuing post" Now, I'm not trying to make your mouth water or make you hungry, so please forgive me if I do succeed in doing that. Every year around this time my family has a annual "Candy making day" We go over to my Nana's house ( She lives right across the street from us) and make candy all day long. For the past few years we've started making up some of our candy, and just bringing it with us, as the kitchen isn't big enough for everything we bake! (Though my Nana's kitchen is pretty big!) We had candy making day today, we made candy all day long. We stopped around noon to have a sandwich and then continued baking cookies! Towards the end of the afternoon the baking slows, and we all take time to box up the candy we want, and taste test. (Everyone's favourite part!) Below are a few pictures I took. Sorry they aren't very good, I wasn't trying to make them good, I was just flashing them quickly, as I was in everyone's way with my camera!

Well! Is your mouth watering yet? Looking over the pictures, I realized I forgot fudge! Oh well. You'll just have to imagine what it looks like. I hope this isn't torture reading this post... I sure had my full share of candy today :)
Gott segne und frohe Weihnachten!
