An Adult in a Candy Shop
21Dec09
If you’re an out-of-towner, visiting New York with the kids, or just a candy connoisseur, Dylan’s Candy Bar is a destination not to be missed.
I may not make the most attractive gummy bear (and evidentially I should have brought a few dates) but at a recent Dylan’s Candy Bar event, I was a happy one. Surrounded by all kinds of tasty treats, there was no way I could walk out empty handed.
In fact, I picked up a Big Hunk (candy bar that is).
One of the largest candy stores in the world, this place will not only appease your sweet tooth, but also bring back the magic I feel is lost in many modern day candy stores.
This candy emporium is 15,000 square feet with over 5,000 candies, a candy café, fashion more

1. Monkey Bridge Tee by Andira Rain Tees
5Dec09
The MONKEY BRIDGE tee shirt by Andira Rain Tees is one of my favorite gifts for kids, not to mention it makes for a great conversation piece. Illustrated by 11-year old Winnie McCarthy of Costa Rica, this tee is available in size 18 months to 12 youth. Winnie’s drawing is of the special bridges which were created to give endangered monkeys a way to cross roads to prevent them from being electrocuted by power lines or getting hit by cars, and in result have saved thousands of monkeys’ lives.
Suggested Retail Price: $32
