Violet had been thinking and listening and suddenly she thought she saw a connection. "Dr. Sharma, I think Heath is right. It might have something to do with candy--evidence of the first Egyptian candy was found from 2000--it was made of dates and nuts and honey and spices. And the people living in Mexico between 1500-400 are thought to have first began using cacao then. And candy in Europe became accessible to the masses during the 1800s, and I think they started marketing modern chocolate around 1850. And..." But Violet couldn't think of anything happening in Salem in 1692 AD except the witch trials, and she doubted the Puritans ever allowed themselves anything as fun as candy. "Uh, but the only candy I can think of in Salem in 1692 was the name of one of the slave women who was accused of witchcraft. I saw a bride's cake recipe from back there, but I never heard of their having any candy to eat back then."
