Keeping With the Theme

Sweet.

I recall the Charlotte Russe of my childhood as a sweet confection. "...a simple version consisting of a square of sponge cake topped with whipped cream (sometimes with chocolate sprinkles) and a maraschino cherry."My memory precludes the sprinkles.

Candy bananas, another sweet, vied with marshmallow yellow chickens for my attention at the candy store. Mr. Davidson, the epitome of patience, filled up our bags with selected candy. I wonder what I'd think of those candies now? Now that I have mature taste buds.

Oh for a chance.
