@CANDLEQUEEN Welcome!๐ฅฐ ๐๐๐ I have been pleasantly surprised at how many of us had to be home by then!๐ As much as I would hate to leave my friends that did not have the same curfew as I, my hiney knew what would happen if I did not!๐ My dear mother said what she meant and she meant what she said! PERIOD!โค๏ธ
As my dear grandmother would say, "That'll learn ya".๐ I look back on that simpler time with great fondness, but at that time, I wish I could have teleported myself somewhere else!๐
THANK you SO much for caring to share!๐ค
~~~All we need is LOVE๐

@walker wrote:@SandySparkles ...... thanks for the laughs and trip down memory lane! I remember all of the "then" list. I think I was usually peanut butter and jelly on Wonder Bread. My brother had the bologna. I also remember Wonder Bread being about 25 cents. In fact, to answer @monicakm....I did get my mouth washed out once with a bar of Ivory soap! Whatever I said then I never said again! HA!
@walker Welcome!๐ฅฐ I am SO glad you are enjoying warm memories!โค๏ธ I LOVEDโค๏ธ Wonder Bread on any sandwich; ESPECIALLY peanut butter and grape jelly or strawberry preserves.๐
THANK you SO much for caring to share!๐ค
