How long has it been for you? I went to the circus last week and for $5
I relished eating cotton candy on a paper cone. Haven't had it for
40yrs. It was as delicious as I remember.

I received a fair share of dirty looks from parents who wouldnt spend
that much money whose children saw me relishing mine and began to whine.
$5 is awfully steep-sheesh it was $16 just to walk thru the gate. (I had
the opportunity to get up close and personal with a tiger in his
restrictive tiny cage 6feet away from me trying to get out of his cage
silently...wow!)

So it brings me to this question-have you ever made cotton candy (do
tell) and while I know they sell an appliance for it, is it possible to
make it stovetop?
