Treat Yourself At The Sweet Shop

Saturday...
was the perfect day with blue skies and 70 degree temperatures.
It started with a peaceful morning, a much needed and relaxing manicure,
 time at the inlet watching the boats and hoping to see the whale that was spotted there on Friday.
No luck on spotting the whale.
The day ended on the boardwalk at Martell's.


A stop at Jenkinson's Sweet Shop is a must when you visit the Point Pleasant boardwalk.
The sweet smell of chocolate, cotton candy and homemade fudge evokes a powerful feeling of nostalgia.
My favorite sight...the rows of candy apples and jars of colorful salt water taffy.














Now, let's go eat some boardwalk food for dinner.


We shared this sausage sandwich and ate every one of these french fries, this was so good,
and very healthy, I'm sure.


Wednesday, I'll share pictures from the inlet...we saw so many boats!

I would find that Sweet Shop so tempting. You captured it beautifully, Debbie.

What a delightful place! Purple candied apples! I love salt water taffy. Seems it was best made at the state fair. Looks like the boardwalk has lobster at one end and crabs at the other. Linda in Kansas

So bright and happy looking. We are dark and drizzly and going into to a cold snap. So nice to visit here.

Wow that is some shop of sweet treats and I can't believe that all the years we lived in NJ, we never visited, maybe that's a good thing. The sausage sandwish looks yummy.

Dear Debbie!
A wonderful shop and wonderful food! I love sweets, so I avoid those sweet shops. I make my fries in an oil-free fryer. I should point out that I'm not diabetic.
Have a wonderful November.
