Still wrapping up our twenty-hour stint in New York. We went a couple of blocks out of our way to visit Dylan's Candy Bar which is hands down amazing. I'm actually pretty glad I didn't bring the girls here because I don't think I'd have gotten out of there for less than a c-note if The Dormouse was around and I didn't want to hear, "Can-nee? Can-nee? Can-nee?" from The Caterpillar for every minute of the next three months. In fact, though I brought them both souvenirs from the place, I did not bring back any candy nor will I let them look at the photos. My momma didn't raise no dummy.
But for you, good blog readers, I will share. Here, let me take you on a tour of three floors of awesome.
Here's the main candy bar with every kind of "penny candy" imaginable:
The whole store is decorated with candy:
Here's a table:
And I mean everything:
Even the artwork is candy. This is made completely from Jelly Bellies:
I guess they couldn't figure out how to make the light fixtures from candy, but this is a pretty good facsimile:
The stairs, however, they figured out:
Haven't you always wanted to take a gumball bath?
Dive right in:
I've often said I could live very happily without chocolate as long as there was rock candy around:
So good wishes from the floor:
Looks good enough to eat.
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

What about the wallpaper? Did the snozberries really taste like snozberries?

@Sunny: Thanks.
@Scott: Here's little tidbit about snozberries: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=snozberries
So... to answer your question... no.

@paws: I so wanted a pair of those jammies for myself, but they only went up to size 2T. Dylan's discriminates against adults.
