I was born in Brooklyn, and lived in Richmond Hill for about 4 years before we moved to Long Island. I have fond memories of candy stores, and luncheonettes in those 4 years! I grew up on egg cream soda's too. Thanks for sharing these great memories, as they hit home with me!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16219164785442407513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1645021229392078385.post-7096127270301663292011-11-09T13:52:25.554-08:002011-11-09T13:52:25.554-08:00I agree with Mechelle, I started thinking about ta...I agree with Mechelle, I started thinking about tasting all of the yummies in the pictures.Loretta - Thoughtful Gemshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08093334159457380900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1645021229392078385.post-5480063882683721702011-11-09T12:40:40.390-08:002011-11-09T12:40:40.390-08:00You're making me hungry!You're making me hungry!Mechellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08761319655108400214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1645021229392078385.post-53470290101070991082011-11-03T17:02:47.304-07:002011-11-03T17:02:47.304-07:00As Bob Hope would say, or was it Jack Benny - &quo...As Bob Hope would say, or was it Jack Benny - "thanks for the memories"<br /><br />We had one too - on the way to school - we bought chocolate caramels for a penny.

We used to have one in our town and it was so wonderful, been replaced with a cafe bar which I also enjoy but it's a shame to have lost such a wonderful old shop.

Daddy used to give me a dime and I would go down to the corner drug store in the tiny MO river town we lived in and I could get a Cherry Coke and a whole bag of penny candy for that one dime. :) Good times! That Drug Store had the best strawberry ice cream sodas!!!Zuda Gay Peasehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12266680967384922430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1645021229392078385.post-87882880457465609542011-11-02T05:49:12.354-07:002011-11-02T05:49:12.354-07:00And very yummy memories!And very yummy memories!Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01074733534589022724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1645021229392078385.post-55444612277014457292011-11-02T04:02:41.346-07:002011-11-02T04:02:41.346-07:00Ahhhh memories ever sweet....♥
