I was sorting through some old VHS tapes the other day and I came across a tape on which we had recorded several episodes of Candy Unwrapped. For the uninitiated, this is a Food Network show which takes you on a tour of the factories where they make candy favorites. My guess is that this is a show that most people watch by accident. They are flipping through the channels when nothing was on and were momentarily drawn in by the story of lollipops were made. But not Emma. I guess you could say Emma was kind of a candy groupie. So she planned to watch Candy Unwrapped. She loved Candy Unwrapped.
When she first discovered this show, it was usually aired after her bedtime. She would hear the promos for the show and be so disappointed that she would already be in bed when it came on. "Well, I could tape it for you," Peter would offer. She would go off to bed happy, knowing that when the weekend rolled around, she'd be able to indulge herself in a marathon of Candy Unwrapped episodes, including the latest from that week.
It made me smile to see that videotape. It was just so Emma - another one of those silly, quirky little things that made her unique and unforgettable.
