It has been fun to realize all the great memories I have around, of all things, chocolate! My sister, Karen, even reminded me of the cut glass candy dish my Momma used just for candy, and often, well probably MOST of the time, it was some kind of chocolate. Oh, I just remembered! At Christmas there were always those hard striped brightly colored ribbon candies, in the shape of stacked S's. <br /><br />You know, Mary, I realized it's not really even the chocolate, or candies... it's the memories. :-)<br />This has been a totally fun blog hop, thanks!Rettahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10034267067410245582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18512875.post-47005439494806358482012-09-10T15:47:20.836-07:002012-09-10T15:47:20.836-07:00We have Hershey's Kisses here in New Zealand. ...We have Hershey's Kisses here in New Zealand. They are good. But you won't find me doing chocolate for a while and certainly not the Bloghop. I've just looked at how much I've eaten this week. Ouch. I think I've found an excuse to eat ad lib on 70% especially if it's flavoured with chilli. <br /><br />Memories are treasures.<br /><br />BlessingsMargieAnnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05591436464085450834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18512875.post-68955537803435919662012-09-10T15:13:15.158-07:002012-09-10T15:13:15.158-07:00Great memories.
