The Candy Man







During vacation we visited Callie's Candy Factory and Pretzel Factory in the Poconos. It is a tradition that we have been doing since we were kids. I was so excited to introduce Kiki to these traditions. When you visit the Candy Factory Callie (the real candy man) comes out and does a show where he tells you how he makes his candy. He gives away all of his secrets (or most of them) and tells you how simple it is to make the money yourself. He of course does not recommend doing so since he does not want to lose your business. It is a funny and great show and he is a loud man.
I could not wait for Kiki to see him. Within a few minutes she was bored and her father took her outside. I stayed for the show. At the end of the show he gives out free samples. Kiki and her father came back in for that part and she loved the chocolate.

After the Candy Factory we always go to the Pretzel Factory for lunch. There we eat Pretzel Pizzas and Pretzel Dogs and hang out. The kids (and their dads) had fun hanging out on the motorcycle in the lobby. I have great pics from both the Candy and Pretzel Factory. The kids had a lot of fun.
