Pretzels:Arms folded in prayer, a freedom sought by the founders
of our country.

so scarce that the settlers survived on just a few kernels of
corn per day.
Nut or Seeds: Promise of a future harvest, one will reap only
if seeds are planted and tended to with diligence.
Dried Fruits: Harvest gifts of our bountiful land.
M&Ms: Memories of those who came before us to guide us to a
blessed future.
Hershey's Kiss: The love of family and friends that sweetens
our lives.
