Ron, were you a kayaker too? I vaguely remember watching the cool looking boat in the creek. I lived the Swedish fish and frozen milkyways too. Great times!

I was the beach manager and ran that concession stand for four summers. I used to eat popsicles all afternoon. I also had a thing for ice-cream sandwiches.

I am concerned about your breeding program. They both look like females from your photo!
Some of my childhood favorites were Big Mo(a soft neopolitan coconut bar), Baby Ruth (always fresh and not like the stale rock- hard ones they sell now), and frozen Milky Way or Zero candy bars on a stick, and lets not forget Bun,Pepermint Patties and Mallow-Cups.
Chased down with a Hires Root Beer or Cream Soda. A quarter would get you a soda, 2 candy bars,and 3 penny candies. God I’m OLD!!!

I can't believe you love Swedish Fish... I LOVE Swedish Fish. When I was a kid I played softball and after each game the town teams would all descend upon "the Custard Shoppe" which was the town ice cream joint-they had penny candy and yummy ice cream cones with the best sprinkles-sprinkles that had little bits of nuts and candy and cunchies.... mmmm. Anyway-all of the players would get a ticket that was worth about fifty cents. I would always get my quarter ice cream cone and then a quarter's worth of swedish fish... and some days I went all out and spent the entire lot on the fish. Good times. I miss childhood. june cleaver’s last blog post..As God Is My Witness... I Will Defend The Mighty Swoon!

Loretta – Nice! Little Debbie is my friend too!

Emily – oh heck yeah! I love pop rocks too! We need to get some again…for the kids of course!

YD – too bad you can’t get your favs…I am sure your local dentist needs some help!

ceecee – you should try my childhood favorites! I am sure they are good for what ails you!

Lacy – how are you gonna rot your teeth with granola bars? I love them too actually…

Diane – I have no idea about those candies but anything purple and sugary sounds awesome to me! We used to get necco wafers from a little store in town when I was a kid. It’s weird but I remember getting them there all the time.

ETW – I am getting like you when it comes to ice cream…a little goes a long ways. On sugary candy, though, I am as good as I ever was!

sugarcreekstuff – finally someone else who understands! So many people think I am crazy…they judge me! But not you…thanks so much!

Cath – holy cow! a 2 foot candy bar! I could use that for all three meals! How awesome would that be?!

You're tooooo funny! My favourite was a "wig wag" chocolate bar. That sucker had to be 2 feet long. Of course they wouldn't even think of making a chocolate bar that big these days. It would probably just be called a "wig" or maybe a "wag". Cath’s last blog post..RODENTS, RAIN, AND A GREAT LOOKING RACK

I love the sweedish fish, more chewy than those flavorless gummys. Good luck on the breeding program. sugarcreekstuff’s last blog post..all work and no (well some) play

I liked Zotz. I guess you can still find them, but I'm not so much into candy these days. Every now and then, I'll crave a Snickers. I like the bags of the Halloween sized ones because that's just the amount I want. Evil Twin's Wife’s last blog post..She's Not Here
