Penny candy. I was allowed to walk to the store with my little sister, several blocks. We each had a quarter. The counter was a buffet of candies and the salesperson would fill a little paper bag for you as you made your selections.

Lol, your lovely purse reminded me of some reclaimed quilt work I saw in Toronto.

Fantastic story telling and your dad is a legend

Is there a shop on the west edge of Kensington that carries your work?

Well done!
