Resistance Is Futile

The girls and I just got back from a quick weekend in Minnesota visiting family and finding Fall.  It was glorious.  Our first outing was to Minnesota's Largest Candy Store, near Jordan, and it truly lives up to its name and more.  Not just a candy store, it also has the world's largest soda selection, fresh produce (including a pumpkin patch) from their orchard and farm, and warm pies made by the owner's 88-year-old father.  Polka music and the  smell of sugar filled the air inside the funky yellow structure.  Where else could you purchase not only a pack of candy cigarettes, but also an entire case?  "Resistance is Futile" could be their motto.  And although it's possible that I developed a cavity just by walking through the doors, it was a pretty sweet experience.
