Candy Kids the candy maker pulls taffy until glossy, long and tender-- yet tough at the same time the children watch the children learn the candy maker beats the taffy until it is supple until it is yielding then he leaves it to harden the children toughen the children harden. ©2004 Grover Gall |

Wow, I'll not look at the taffy-pull at Myrtle Beach in the same light again. I never really cared for the taffy here, though. Maybe it's "too" tough... Creative write! McLean |

Hey that’s what Tootsie Pop has to do, so that Baby Ruth, and the other Sugar Babies, can learn... I know, that was a dud (Milk Dud).  Enjoyed Grover. Thanks! |
