I was out shopping at Meijer this evening, and they have the bins of bulk Brach candy. I happened upon the Milk Maid flavored caramel rolls and remembered how my Grandma Lynn would have them for us to eat. It wasn't something that she had all the time, but I do remember having them at her house. Well that was excuse enough for me to bag up a small scoop. So in a nostalgia-induced candy binge I got to thinking about my Grandma. She always had Pepsi for us. She would ask if we were hungry and would get out vanilla wafers or some other snack. Or she might offer a bowl of cereal, or a "bowl of nothing" as she would call it. :) My Grandma was a kind and loving, no-nonsense and practical, generous and Godly woman. And I miss her. P.S. - I did share with the kids.

Reminds me of how my Grandma would always pack us brown bags of treats when we would leave to go home. It was always something different. Like oyster crackers, carmels, graham crackers. Now it seems so simple but it always seemed so special coming from her! I miss her too!
It reminds me of the drink, Tab. My grandmother loved it! It's all she drank. I never liked it UNLESS she fixed a glass for herself. Then I would sip on it till it was gone. PS Brad thinks the diet in HELL is Tab and cabbage. giggle
