I organized a recent trip to Logan's Candy Cane making Store in Ontario for our Homeschool Group. It was so fun! We saw the candy canes made from start to finish, got to eat hot pieces of candy cane and they were just great, real people. I am not one for big cheesy symbolism as many do with candy canes. But in his candy cane making presentation he did the stripes for the blood of Christ and the white for his purity and the J for Jesus along with the history of Candy canes as candy invented to keep the kids quiet during the big Christmas pageant at the cathedral. He was just so fun and honest about his faith and love for the process of making this traditional Christmas Candy that it made it beautiful. I guess the cheesiness can be broken by being transparent. I gotta remember that. Watch the video for yourself here and read an articlehere and here . Aggie is writing the process out for schooling today...ah unschooling!
