Here is a note I got today from Mary from the Murdo Girl blog. She is the grandniece of Tet Sanderson, who was mentioned in the poem “Sanderson’s Store” that I published yesterday.
“This certainly brings back warm memories. I remember getting my brown bag of candy at Sanderson’s to take to the show with me on Saturday night. Aunt Tet loved all the kids and wouldn’t take her lunch break until after all the kids had stopped to buy their treats on their way back to school. I had forgotten some of the candies you mentioned. Thanks for sharing this with me. I loved it!”

Wish I had a photo of it. Knows my friend Mary, who is also a blogger, has one because it belonged to her grandfather and uncle and Tet was her great aunt. Must ask her for one.

Such a lovely family all. Their great-nephew gave me my first kiss when I was six! I wrote a poem about it a year or two ago..it was on the blog.
