-Other Candies-Velamints, Smarties, Spree, SweeTarts, Jolly Ranchers, Charms, Pez (Grandma- at –the- Farm got us the dispensers for Christmas), Starburst, UFOs (We’d get these with Jessica and Cindy in the late 70s), candy corn, Tootsie Rolls (and Pops), caramels, candy cigarettes, Life Savers (my fav flavor was Butter Rum), and tic tac (We’d sometimes pretend they were pills or vitamins).
-Cracker Jacks -
We liked the prizes in the box even though they were cheesy.
-Entenmanns – We
love their donuts, éclairs and chocolate chip cookies.
-We liked having Pillsbury biscuits as a special breakfast
treat.
-Mrs. K made me a liverwurst with onions and mayo on rye
sandwich once. Her granddaughters Cindy and Jessica, Mike, and I also liked
having cranberry juice mixed with 7 -Up at her house.
-Mr. K gave us a horseradish from his garden. Mom used this
to mix with the beets for our Easter meal. It was very strong. Our other
neighbor Mr. R used to give us tomatoes. Once we got a giant zucchini from Ken
and Tammy who gave us a recipe for this since we had never had it before.
We had a vegetable
garden with cucumbers, tomatoes, and radishes in our yard 2 or 3 times. I think
that one year we had corn in it too.
