My friend Deb & I decided to take a drive to Vasilow's Confectionery. It's a little over an hour from where I live in CT--over in Hudson, NY. I don't think I've driven around in the area at all. I have a few photos of a farm for another day. I had posted on Facebook that I was heading that way & Kate was nice enough to let me know that they were temporarily out of pepitas!
We decided to go anyway & had a great time meeting & talking to Kate--Jim wasn't in ---now we have planned another trip back in early December.
Lots of luscious choices. We both bought a variety of things--Wayne, I bought a box of assorted truffles--yum!
Here's the display for the pepitas-
And the empty basket!
Chocolate covered pieces of ginger--delicious! This was one of the first things I tried once I got home; other delights you can see in the photo.
Chocolate dipped apricots.......
Love this sign! Look closely & you'll see me reflected in the mirror on the wall ....
We've already planned a trip in a few weeks & I really want to go back to the area in the spring--lots of things to do & places to see!

What a fun trip! And I definitely don't have strength as it is defined there! Great photos!
That's what I call a good road trip...straight to the candy store!
Thanks!
We had a fun day! We introduced Deb & Lou to Isla in Jan this year & they are hooked too! ( they won 3 nights in Ixchel 709 & are using it in Jan.) I think we'll be back to Vasilows within a few weeks!
