Peanut Brittle

I decided that I needed to try my hand at candy making today.  I grew up in a little town where on certain days you knew it was time for the local Penecostal church to make the most fantastic peanut brittle.  Our long time family friend made it every time and then would bring by fresh candy for Grannie Shirley to purchase.  I would always eat around the nuts and I remember that being the best brittle ever.  Well, it's easier to buy that bag of brittle than make it!  It did taste okay, just not as good as I remember it when I was growing up.
