It's sometimes hard to find here, but my "Granny" brings it back from NC when she goes there to visit her relatives.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for your kind welcome back.Lenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16147259175811183482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-88510949671163422.post-5047374752918737152008-05-11T07:00:00.000-06:002008-05-11T07:00:00.000-06:00Happy Mother's Day dear Julie - hope it's a beauti...Happy Mother's Day dear Julie - hope it's a beautiful day for you.<BR/>Hugs - Mary.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02147410299194282171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-88510949671163422.post-60042310885813609702008-05-10T16:56:00.000-06:002008-05-10T16:56:00.000-06:00Julie, What a fun post...

To add to this mess, she loved Henna. I was born with and continue to have red hair. But Mama would get this long look at me and I knew....she was going to put this green junk on my hair..It was now beyond red, and she was so happy. I washed my hair over and over trying to lighten it just alittle...the good old, bad old days.Shop girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13967035119260237110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-88510949671163422.post-78099995670741397652008-05-07T13:36:00.000-06:002008-05-07T13:36:00.000-06:00Wow!!!I have seen some of those things, specially ...Wow!!!<BR/>I have seen some of those things, specially the bonanza show and I never had a real barbie, only a fake one when I was already a young lad and just because I wanted to get that out of my system, LOLcouragetocreatewriteandlovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06649184939312099888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-88510949671163422.post-76021394205210590172008-05-07T11:09:00.000-06:002008-05-07T11:09:00.000-06:00PS, the Toni home perm always cracked me up.

I was so disappointed because Barbie was the "IN" doll. My doll was prettier...more like the Barbies of today.<BR/><BR/>I also loved the candy cigarettes.

They didn't resemble most of the girls I knew. And, you're right, they did look Asian at first.<BR/><BR/>An aside... I was watching a piece on TMC today. Asian actors were discussing early stereotypes having to do with Asians in film... Women were either sex objects or servants, and males were nerdy. If they did show an Asian with intelligence, it was a Caucasian made to look Asian. Remember The Good Earth? We sure have come a long way...<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the slice of life! Much of the candy I loved is still around. I still enjoy Chick-o-sticks.<BR/><BR/>Here is a site called, Candy You Ate as a Kid...
