Everything was so green and the wildflowers were out in full force. It was a perfect day-- 75 degrees, bright sunshine, not too crowded since it was a weekday, etc. After grabbing some lunch, we did a little shopping. There is one place I always insist on visiting in Jackson:
I even love the name of this place. It's a candy heaven! You walk inside and your inner child comes to life!
No, this is not your average candy store. Yes, they have Jelly Bellies and salt-water taffy, but they also have fudge and chocolates and hard to find candy from your childhood! One example-- Zotz!
Possibly my favorite candy as a child and dang hard to find now-a-days. After we were married I found out that Sean also loves Zotz. It was just one more sign that I knew we were meant for eachother (another one being he loved the same cartoon with the bear stuffing paper in a geyser and doing the "bump bump" dance-- just pretend you know what I'm talking about!)
I had a lot of favorite candies when I was a kid. Some are still around, others are pretty hard to find: Zotz, Bonkers, Big League Chew, War Heads, Bubble Tape, Ring Pops, etc.
Anyone share the love of Zotz or have any childhood favorites they would like to share?

I loved ring pops when I was a kid but I have never heard of Zotz! I really like that you and Sean both love them, a sign of true love, and also that random bear stuffing paper into the geyser story. haha! I love little stories like that!!
So fun! That's where Kev & I went on our honeymoon and it was a blast. You're right, so fun and so close! Glad to see stuff is going well for you guys. When will Sean start at the U? Good luck this summer!
