aubrey used to be the location of a large peanut factory, which has long since shut down. each year on main street they host a "peanut festival" with a parade (i was in the parade numerous times for drill team, and then later marching in it for marching band). perhaps what i miss most is the cattle-lac, ridiculous right? i also miss the fire roasted corn and kettle corn. okay - those are really the only things i miss about it.
