Laid-Back Sage

“Fit for a spell of tubin’ downriver, so long as you don’t get your taffies wet!”

Thanks to Mr. Okie Branch from Walters, OK for that non-biased review!  He shouted this fine review to me as he floated slowly past, sprawled out on a pool tube, ridin’ the river.  “How did this situation come to pass?” you may ask.  Well, the year was 2018 and I was down in the Beavers Bend area for some dragonfly surveys, hoping for something real nice... you know, something like a Hagenius brevistylus or any Macromia, really, I wasn’t picky.  Anyway, I  made the mistake of working the stretch along one of the most popular summertime weekend retreats, so the waters were crowded with Okies from all over the state of Oklahoma.  At first I slumped as the visage of a strange woman with binoculars and a bug net collected the stares of every passerby.  But then I had an idea!  I seized the opportunity for objective reviews by making a sign from a sad, scraggled piece of paper I found in the depths of my pocket and a half-empty permanent marker.  I scrolled REVIEWS WANTED in the biggest font I could manage and glued the sign to my insect net with some aquatic moss.  Lucky for me, it was waterproof paper.  

Now the reason I needed objective reviews for this particular product is that it’s my absolute favorite.  My judgement has been colored by honeymoon-like adoration, leaving my personal review 100% biased.  I will tell you I cannot stop eating these dang taffies!  The second one vanishes, another takes it’s place faster than you can utter the words “I love taffy.”  

I can at least say - with conviction!- that if you are in any way unsatisfied with my Laid-Back Sage taffies, feel free to return them to me.  I will eat them for you, free of charge.
