I just love love, really love the legend of the candy cane.. Have you heard of it before? If not read here..
Look at the Candy Cane
What do you see?
Stripes that are red
Like the blood shed for me
White is for my Savior
Who’s sinless and pure!
“J” is for Jesus My Lord, that’s for sure!
Turn it around
And a staff you will see
Jesus my shepherd

I really believed it! It’s such a wonderful legend. Well, some things I still want to believe. And this is one of them. regardless of what other non-candy cane legenders chose to believe…
POOH on snopes for trying to ruin the wonderful candy cane legend.
PS ~ If you are having a hard time finding the candy cane with 3 stripes, try the dollar stores.
Hmph! I love the candy cane legend, too. Between the Neiman Marcus cookies and “forward this to get money from Bill Gates” emails, I send somebody to snopes a couple of times a week, but I think I’ll just look the other way on this one. It’s just too charming legend to debunk!
Hi there! Can you email me your address? I would like to send you the prize you won on the Homemade with Love drawing (The peppermint ice cream topping in the snowman tin). I hope it doesn’t break in the transport!!! Thanks!

I really love that legend as well. It’s so beautiful.
