Cotton Candy

When I wrote earlier about buying local I mentioned school fairs. If you ever want to be the man or woman of the hour at one of these events, volunteer to work the cotton candy machine. It is nasty, nasty work. You end up covered with cotton candy lint and hands and wrists like a yeti. A lot of wrist twirling is involved so it is not for the uncoordinated of those with carpal tunnel syndrome. Wear goggles and a surgical mask if you can. Anyone who willingly works the cotton candy machine is sure to earn the adoration of all concerned. One of the many many things we did not learn in school.
