Horehound Candy - A sweet lesson



"Mary licked hers. But Laura bit her stick, and the outside of it came off, crumbly. The inside was hard and clear and dark brown. And it had a rich, brown, tangy taste. Pa said it was horehound candy." ~ On the Banks of Plum Creek

We had just read the chapter talking about this candy. A couple of days later, we found this at Fred's! We liked it! We also looked up information about the herb, horehound. I don't know if this candy is exactly like what Laura and Mary had, but that's okay:)
