Day 332: Peppermint Twist Candy Shoppe

Mom had saved an older edition of the local paper, the Marshfield Mariner, for me to read during my visit, primarily to see the photos and stories about the recent major snowstorms. While I appreciated that information and those images, I was more struck by the feature on a local business, Peppermint Twist Candy Shoppe:

The store has apparently been open for about a year, but somehow I missed it during our summer visit, as I would certainly have been a frequent patron! Up to this point, my only source for bulk candy or old-fashioned penny candy was raiding the toppings bar at a self-serve frozen yogurt shop.

I'm so pleased to have a better source to feed my sweet tooth!
