How I Celebrated

The Brach's candies were in case we didn't find pralines elsewhere because the basic definition of a praline is a confectionery with at least nuts and sugar. So candied nuts. And that's what they are. They aren't very good. Nate went grocery shopping and had a tough time even finding pralines and cream ice cream. I always see Baskin Robin's and wonder how they are still around, but I guess the reason is because they are pretty much the only ice cream company in grocery stores that still use the word "praline". (You can't prove me wrong 'cause you weren't there).
