Grandma's Peanut Butter Fudge
My Grandma Ellie lives on 123 acres in rural country West Virginia. Our family moved away from West Virginia when I was small, so we haven’t had a lot of opportunities to spend the holidays with my grandma. Despite the distance between us, my grandma has tried to make Christmas time a special time for all of us. She always sends us a Christmas card with some money for presents and she often sends my mom a box of her homemade peanut butter fudge. Thankfully my mom is willing to share and I always look forward to this tasty treat!
