Remember Mr. Mint, Lord Licorice, Plumpy, and Gramma Nutt?
Our present choice for family game night is Candy Land.
Remember that one? Our 1999 version features King Kandy, Mr. Mint, Lord Licorice,
Plumpy, Gramma
Nutt, etc. One great thing (among many) about
parenthood at middle age is the chance to relive childhood again. Little d and
I have as much fun in this simple race-to-the-finish board game as four-year-old
daughter. And, yes, it’s still frustrating to be almost to the end only to get
stuck in Molasses Swamp or sent back to Plumpy when the rest of the gingerbread
men are hot on your heels … always my luck!
Candy Land looks familiar. I might have played a similar board game with a different name.
