When I was a little girl - my grandparents would watch me while my parents went to bowl. I have many memories that date back to be fore I was 4 - at their house. There was always Shasta soda - black cherry or rootbeer. Rootbeer floats. They had the most wondrous of glasses... annodized aluminum in jewel tones.. remember those...and they also had these sippy spoon straws. Perfect for stirring - sipping and scooping the ice cream. I am going to get some for my grandkids visits. These needles in all of their jewel tone glory - are aluminum and remind me so much of those cups... see what I mean? I love to work with them...they remind me of pure pleasure and sipping rootbeer floats at grandmas.
You have such a gentle, lyrical style--it's pure pleasure to read what you've written. Thanks!
