Sharing Candy With a Friend

I can list about 20 candies that I used to love as a kid. Some candies I chose because I loved the way they tasted... Paydays and Bit-O-Honey. Other candies were just plain fun!

Candy cigarettes and candy necklaces are very non-tasty, but inspiring candies. I had some added inspiration recently, when I enjoyed these candies with my college friend, Martha. We hadn't seen each other since theatre conservatory days, nearly 40 years ago. We made use of those important acting skills and had some fun with our candy props... much to the amusement of our husbands.

Sixty
Celebrations

It's April 9, 2017. I'm celebrating my 60th by removing the zero from my age.

Party
Like A Six-Year-Old

I plan to spend this year pondering the good things I remember about my world, when I was 6. I remember those 12 months well, because my family moved from Iowa to NYC for just one year. My memories of 1963-64 are vivid ones.

My Plan

I'll celebrate this milestone birthday for 12 months. I'm going to conjure up the early 1960's and have 60 mini celebrations... in the spirit of my 6 year old self!
