Dalin, & everybody,

I loved all those memories. I've been meaning to resurrect some of that in my next book and this proves to me I should. Here's a few: milk in quart bottles delivered twice a week at your back door, with corrugated cardboard tops you'd peel off, and drink the cream. Slinkies, crouch at the top of the stairs and watch them walk down of their own accord, then one day yours disappears, because your little brother's is broken so he steals yours. As if he thot nobody would notice! The night HE disappears and nobody knows where he's gone and finally he is discovered curled up asleep in a kitchen cabinet, with an empty carton of ice-cream. Now THERE'S adventure for you. Schwinn bicycles with bells to warn everybody you are coming down the quiet suburban streets. Pez. Fishnet stockings. The sorrel growing wild in your friend's backyard, which you like to eat. Shortsheeting her older brother's bed because he's so cute & he's a PAINTER & unfortunately he has a girlfriend. Then he puts grape jelly on your bicycle seat, so you put peanut butter on his bicycle handlebars. Etc! <g>
