We made Taffy

My best sister, my Dad and Barb all  trecked to Ames last Saturday to help me make Salt Water Taffy for a community church outreach event "The Perfect Gift"  Dad whipped through 7 batches in about 5 hours (we took a little over an hour break to watch Em in the childrens program).  We cooked in the equipment closet for the gym, to keep the heat away from the kids.  Dad pulled out so eveyone could see the fun part.  Almost 1700 people came through the Plex on Saturday.  We could have gotten rid of every piece, but we did save a little back for ourselves.
