Cotton Candy Dreams

Posted on the 31 March 2012 by Eriktiger @eriktiger

I am sitting at my daughter’s high school for Solo Contests and peddling cotton candy. We spent last night spinning floss sugar into yummy goodness.

Beware of flying sugar! Nothing beats a head full of sugar cobwebs.

Now we are selling them for two bucks a bag with proceeds going to the arts and music. What a great way to spend the day.

One perk of cotton candy, for teens anyway, is the colored tongue effect. It’s a great hook. That dye is amazingly potent, I think they use tattoo ink. Maybe not. Red dye number 5

We got grape, strawberry, and berry blue. We even have cherry but it is blood red and scary. So we hid those. Cherry ones are for special people.

Cotton candy is a fun treat. I do think cotton candy is related to dreams. Who doesn’t take a bite of spookie fruitie or cherry berry and is transported back to a sweet memory from a childhood carnival experience.

So grab a bag and sink your teeth into the sugar god … And feel young. I’m here all day!
