baseball in LA update

By LeTania Kirkland Smith May 2, 2012

Bring on the peanuts and Cracker Jack; baseball season is in full swing and for small sluggers it’s the most wonderful time of the year (sorry, Santa!). If your little leaguer can’t go to every game (who can?) or even see them on TV (grrrrr), we’ve struck upon loads of ways to get into the spirit of LA baseball. From Friday night fireworks to baseball inspired treats there is plenty in our great city to keep everyone entertained past the 7th inning stretch.

Buy Me Some Peanuts and Cracker Jack

With all of that baseball inspired picnicking, it’s key that you have peanuts and Cracker Jack (yes, it’s singular). You could hit the grocery store, but it's much tastier to make the trip to the Original Farmer’s Market for the original caramel corn at Magic Nut and Candy Co. In varieties like caramel nut corn, confetti corn, chocolate pecan crunch and honey butter crunch there is a little something for everyone. After you’re done there, head over to Magee’s House of Nuts for fresh roasted peanuts also in a variety of flavors (along with other impulse buys like nut butters and jams galore).
