Gotta ask, what kinda candy was she making? Soft crack. Hard crack. Pot….

Even has the donuts on there for, you know, dealing with the munchies.

Regardless of crack or pot, grandma always wanted the firm ball. And she certainly didn’t mind a little of the dark caramel.

  Actually? Now I’m really curious…. What is the pot for? I assume the donuts/fish is for frying oil temp
  
  Is that for frying potatoes?
