I JUST LOVE FUDGE; BEN AND JARRELL DO EQUALLY AS WELL.

2020...Benny is at sea and Jarrell was watching his sugar intake. Thank goodness for the neighbor Brian for helping finish off the fudge. I think I made 40 lbs for friends and family. Chase visited California (who loves fudge as well) and I sent 10 lbs to Georgia with him.
