CHRISTMAS SEEMS A TIME FOR REMEMBERING THE GOOD AND THE BAD OF YEARS GONE BY.......
DO I REMEMBER THIS BOWL OF CANDY????
OH YES, AND HOW WE LOOKED FORWARD TO IT.......BY CHRISTMAS TIME ALL FOUR OF US GIRLS HAD LICKED EACH PIECE TO SEE WHICH WE LIKED BEST AND THEY WERE ALL STUCK TOGETHER.......NONE OF IT TASTED VERY GOOD IF I REMEMBER, BUT THEY WERE COLORFUL AND IT WAS "CHRISTMAS CANDY"......AND THEY AND ORANGES.......OH YES, MOM ALWAYS BOUGHT A COCONUT......ONLY CAME AROUND ONCE A YEAR. EVERYONE HAD A BOWL OF THIS TREAT.
DADDY TOOK US AND WE CUT OUR OWN CHRISTMAS TREE.....AFTER A LOT OF WALKING AND ARGUING ON WHICH ONE WAS THE BEST ......WE HAD FEW DECORATIONS WHEN I WAS YOUNG AND FEW GIFTS......BUT LOTS OF LOVE AND FUN IN OUR GREAT FAMILY.......WE HAD USUALLY UNWRAPPED THE GIFTS UNDER THE TREE AND TAPED THEM BACK AND KNEW MOST THE PRESENTS.
OH YES, CAN'T FORGET OUR SHOPPING TRIP TO DURANGO AND WOOLSWORTH TO BUY GIFTS FOR EACH OTHER......SOXS, GLOVES, EARMUFFS....WOW! FUN!
THANKS FOR ALL THE GOOD MEMORIES MOM AND DAD.
