Pulling Out the Stops

I bought it on a whim.

Ten delicious flavors boasted the bag of Salt Water Taffy sitting by the checkout line. Why not? I thought, It might make a nice change from Jolly Ranchers.

Oh my! The taffy was a hit. Soft and chewy and just sweet enough to please any sixth grader who was able to complete my challenge today. "My mom used to make taffy for us," I told one student. "You have to pull it while its still warm to get the texture right. It was fun!"

Just a few minutes ago I found myself searching for taffy recipes online. Reading directions is important, you know, and maybe my little test prep group could use some hands on practice.
