What I Love. Part 2
There used to be a candy store in town that sold 100's of the type of candy we had as kids. It was expensive, but worth it just to hear everyone's stories of how much a nickel got you.
Do you remember-wafer spaceships with the colored candy inside, bottle caps, 'black' babies, black balls, 'koo-koo', fudge cars, red wax hot lips, cinnamon toothpicks, black licorice cigars, Swedish berries, Popeye cigarettes, jawbreakers, malt balls, spearmint leaves, string licorice in green, red, and purple. We'd eat so much we'd be sick, and if your father sent you for his smokes he'd give you enough to buy a drumstick.
Aah, life as a kid had it's good points
