Rock Candy...

So today I decided to make rock candy for my twin cousins, my younger brother, and myself. So I got a bunch of things to flavor/season the sugar solution/syrup. And oh my GOSH!!!! I never knew that making rock candy took so much work. I'm exhausted from constantly stirring, pouring, covering, and cooling everything. And for WHAT!!??!! So I can wait a week for something that will only make me sick to my stomach because it's so sugary? I don't think so. Next time I want to make rock candy, I'm going to make somebody help me. I mean seriously, my arms are aching from all the movement this little activity required.

But hopefully this stuff turns out good. We didn't have any food coloring so it won't be as colorful as I'd like it to be. But we did have a couple things to "season" the sugar syrup with. The flavors are raspberry lemonade, lemon, orange, and lemonade. And yes people, there IS a difference between lemon and lemonade. So anyway...
LOVE YA!!!
