    i still remember a tour that my mom and her friend dragged all 7 of us to one summer. i think it added to my "how was this made" penchant. it's a great family activity. perhaps a tour of a longarm quilting shop would be interesting :)

    I just clicked on the ones in Utah and there are several candy companies. Bet the kids would love that, as well as the adults. :)
