Lemon Pie
Like many people, I had piano lessons when I was a girl. I can remember walking from the school to my piano teacher's house. On the way was Leon's Market - the only gas station in town and for a long time the only general store. The day of piano lessons, I loved it if I had a dime. We would stop at Leon's and I would buy a little box of Lemonheads to eat as we walked. YUM! I loved biting into them and having the sour liquid pucker up my mouth. Now I'm savoring a sweet lemon pie from Croshaw's and wow is it delicious and bringing back sweet lemon memories. What's your favorite childhood candy? And, if you're a writer, what's your current Main Character's favorite treat? Siri's is pears (Siri is the MC from my novel Bound). That girl loves pears.

In Bomb Magazine April 2018, Miriam Rahmani interviews her friend and poet Jenny Xie . It's a lovely interview. I loved what she said ...
Tamsin loves popcorn. I am an M&M freak but I also love corn nuts and 3 Musketeers.
ReplyDeleteI love your Lemonhead visual. I can feel the tart sweetness slant through my mouth.
My husband and I like to go hiking in the Rincon mountains in December since there is sometimes snow in the mountains then. The snow means we don't have to drag along a couple of gallons of water each. We bring Lemonheads to pop in our mouths with handfuls of snow. Voila, instant lemonade!
