hooo,piece of candy….hooo, piece of candy
We headed out of San Fran today headed for Winnemucca in Nevada. I love going to food factory tours and we planned a trip to the Jelly Belly factory in Fairfield, California! Whoohoo!
It was super cool but not completely unlike the other candy factory tour we had been on. It was colorful…that is for sure! We ended up on a tour with half a school bus full of kindergartners and their parental escorts. We even got to wear paper hats!
The biggest treasure from the tour was the purchased 2 lb bags of “Belly Flops”. These are irregular beans sold for a discounted price. Awesome! Buy two bags, get one free!
Micah has been snacking on them for the last 100 miles and I fear he is going to make himself sick!
My favorite flavors: Juicy pear and strawberry daquri
Least liked bean flavors: Cinnamon and licorice
We will be pulling into Winnemucca around 7 where we hope to relax after a long day of driving through some mountainous terrain (Donner’s pass in California). We picked this as a good stopping point on our way to Denver that has good coverage for the air card. We hear there is a free shuttle to the casino! Another Whoohoo!
Still drinking that wedding Budweiser…Will I ever see my Shiner, Leinie’s or Widmer in my ice box again? I’m betting not for another week! ha!
It’s a cool 60 degrees here but that is pretty on par with what we have had…Thank goodness for the still working Panel ray in Pixel dust.
