Cotton candy cocoon

cotton candy cocoon Ah, summertime, and the living is easy. Nothing says summer more than a carnival -- it's not summer unless you're putting yourself in mortal danger riding rides assembled and operated by drunken drifters. And it's not a proper carnival unless you're eating cotton candy, or "candy floss," as some call it. It's pure sugar heated and spun until it's the same consistency as fiberglass insulation (believe me, that's not a mistake you'll make twice). And, of course, it's not proper cotton candy unless it's infused with the soul of one of those drunken drifters. Wait, what?
