Memory Lane Monday – Candy Cigarettes

June 28, 2010 By Deanna Piercy 6 Comments

Candy Cigarettes

Did you ever “smoke” candy cigarettes?  Apparently they are still available online although I haven’t seen them in stores for years.  Somewhere along the line the idea of children pretending to smoke lost its charm and candy cigarettes disappeared from common use.  I’m sure that’s for the best, although I’m not convinced they really encouraged…

Memory Lane Monday…Del Taco and Swimming Lessons

June 21, 2010 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

 Today is the first day of summer and I find myself thinking back on the summers of my childhood.  I grew up with six cousins nearby, as well as my two younger brothers.  My mom and two aunts often did things together with all of us.  Or sometimes one of the moms would take all…

Memory Lane Monday…Saturday Morning Cartoons

June 7, 2010 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

This weekend we celebrated David’s birthday by spending two relaxing nights at the Skirvin Hotel in Oklahoma City. We were both exhausted, he was fighting a bit of a chest cold and I’ve been having asthma problems so all we wanted to do was rest and not go anywhere. Fortunately the Skirvin is the perfect…

In honor of Memorial Day, I thought I’d share an appropriate memory: I can remember singing this with friends, particularly on one occasion as we drove up to the mountains (I grew up in California where there actually were real mountains). I don’t recall any of us talking about the lyrics so I’m not sure…

Memory Lane Monday…I Love Lucy

May 17, 2010 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

This past Friday, inspired by some reminiscing by my kids, I posted on Facebook several clips from television programs I watched as a child. I must have had well over 50 responses and comments from friends who enjoyed the little trip down Memory Lane. I’ve been doing Menu Plan Mondays on my Dee’s Kitchen blog,…
