Stone church. Look at that gorgeous architecture!

Another shot of some quaint shops downtown and a fountain.
 |
| And me. |
In one of the shops in New Jersey, I found this old time taffy that has been around since 1912.
 |
| Classic! |
It comes with three step instructions on how to eat it. Never knew taffy needed an owner's manual.
 |
| I suggest you follow each step carefully to get the full experience. |
Flavor choice = vanilla. And I did just what it said. First for a bit into the fridge. After all, it was hot out. Then flat in my hand and *BANG* - on to the granite. (Which was at my mom's friend's house, so I hope she didn't mind that I was abusing her counter tops. I must admit, it was quite satisfactory to slam it down with some brute force. Good for relieving pent up anger.) Just as promised, it cracked into smaller pieces.
 |
| Small bits and not as small bits. |
Not a fancy candy, but chewy and delicious. Vanilla is an underappreciated flavor these days.
 |
| Also comes in chocolate, strawberry and banana. |
I really enjoyed having a treat that people who lived long before me (perhaps even my great aunts and uncles) also delighted in. Made exactly the same way as it has been for nearly 100 years. How about that!
