Oh Rosie,
The corsages are awesome! How grown up you must have felt each year.
Never had an ornament pinned to my coat either. What a great thing!
Julie,
My Grandma had a candy dish. It was seasonal and I loved to find the hard Christmas candy in it. The ribbons could shred your tongue after a while.
YUM on the cookie pictures!!
One of my favorite candys were the necklaces. I usually got one after swimming lessons. I don't think I could wear that sticky wet string around my neck now but if you were careful they lasted a while.
Slo-Pokes were another favorite. My sister and I always chose them to pass out to the class on our birthdays.
