I love candy. I do. Its one of my most favorite things. I don't like hard candy--there's just something about soft, chewy candy that makes me happy. & although Circus Peanuts will always be my first choice, I do have several other "favorites" such as Cinnamon Bears, Swedish Fish, & Sour Anything--Ropes, Watermelons, Straws, etc...
When I first began this blog, I decided to do a little investigating on the web before I began--b/c, the truth is--you either love Circus Peanuts, or you hate them--& admittedly, most people (if they know what they are) hate them. One of my dearest memories is when someone asked me what my favorite candy was & when I told him it was Circus Peanuts, he got me a bag of the shelled "real" peanuts & said, "look I got you your favorite treat." He thought I had meant the kind you give to elephants at a circus--one of the many reasons why I liked him so much--& the absolute cutest thing he could have ever done...
A little while later, I met a boy who understood the true meaning of circus peanuts--giving me the most perfect Mother's Day present just a few days after our first date...
And although I don't think anyone will ever be able to top this Circus Peanut bouquet, i am including several websites that you can go to & learn all you want about these delectable treats :)
