A Favorite Candy

Licorice babies! I bought some a few weeks ago when I stopped to Charlie Brown's in Little Rock, on my way up to Fillmore. They have every imaginable candy in the world there. I can never find these licorice babies anywhere so when I saw them at Charly Brown's I had to buy them. I left them at Larissa's (well, there were a few left in the bag after she and I enjoyed some every day)) and she faithfully saved them for me. This is a good photo of them..they are an inch long. Theyhave a great textrue. The licorice scottie dogs at Trader Joe's look like they might be the same but they are not the same texture or taste as these. These babies also have a much more intense licorice flavor than the scottie dogs.

After I eat these 3, it will be a long time before I get more...
