Happy Dance

Well, it's almost Halloween. All the signs are there. Leaves turning, crisp air, hell - we've already had snow, for cryin' out loud.

But one sure sign, ever year (even when I was in Florida) that Halloween was right around the corner, were all of the Affy Tapples in all the stores. Everywhere. Those delicous carmel apples. Ymmmm

Well, as it happens I've hit pay dirt.

When I leave my office I usually go the back route to miss the worst of the traffic. Get's me just that 30 seconds I need to feel like I'm actually making progress. These past couple of weeks I haven't been able to.

You see about 2 weeks ago, I dart to the back exit of the parking only to wait. And wait and wait and wait. Trucks backed up for at least a mile. All waiting to turn into one little tiny plant.

My first thought was "Sweet! Someone is shipping the shit outta something! Good for them!!" Then I saw the name of the plant.

Sweet was right. It's the Affy Tapple plant and they have a plant store!!

Gotta tell you folks - this was akin to a Celebrity sighting for me. Y'all know how I love my food. This is the same woman who made a point of telling the Blue Bunny Ice Cream folks working the same show I was how much I loved their product. For 5 minutes I gushed. Yeah, I'm kinda a nerd about that stuff.

Anyway - I'm pretty happy. Now I know I can get Affy Tapples any time I want to! WooHoo.....

There's an Affy Tapple outlet on Clark in Rogers Park, my friend. Open year 'round.
