I know they carry a lot of vintage candies. I enjoyed seeing your Santa and Mrs. Claus collections. I am glad you were able to have the candy cane Santa from your childhood.

I ...I love the Candy Cane Santa...what a treasure. I have several items that I love and remind me of my childhood, but one that stands out is a small plastic Santa in a sleigh with 8 reindeer attached and pulling the him. Mom says some of the paint is missing because I sucked it off as a baby (lead poisoning I am sure). It has always been a part of my life and Christmas. Tacky but wonderful! I also remember going to my grandparents house and having Christmas Candy on the coffee table. The year round orange slices and circus peanuts were replaced with the ribbon candy you talked about. There was also always a bowl of nuts with a nutcracker waiting. Wonderful memories...thanks for the post.<br />DenisAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10320688908371656855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6115005019733614660.post-14769490114483705772009-12-11T22:32:01.506-06:002009-12-11T22:32:01.506-06:00Hi Sue sweetie...
Oh I love your Candy Cane Santa....Hi Sue sweetie...<br />Oh I love your Candy Cane Santa. Isn't he just the cutest and then he always had a place of honor at your Moma's table. That makes him even more special. Love him.<br /><br />Now I have to tell you, DH and I were just talking about this chocolate covered cherry issue just yesterday. There were alot more in a box when we were kids. I think we get half today, what we did then. And if you remember the box was alot longer than today. Yes the cover has even changed. So sad. Why do they fix things that aren't broken?<br /><br />Santa sure does have a good woman behind him. He always has, and that is how so much gets done in a timely manner and on time. Good ole Misses.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing sweetie. Please pop over and say hi.
