Flashback
I went to the store yesterday to pick up some soda for our "ladie's night" and I saw Cherry 7up. When was the last time you had Cherry 7up?? One drink brought me back to my childhood. We would drive across the border (from Canada to USA) to get Cherry 7up because you couldn't get it in Canada. It's funny how back then, going to "the states" was such a novelty. I think the novelty has worn off, but I will always remember our trips to USA: going to sumas for charleston chews and cherry 7up, stopping at the dairy for the best (and cheapest) ice cream cones ever, going shopping in Lyden or strawberry picking with Grandma Winters, or spending the night at our cabin and then stopping for the yummiest ice cream sundaes on the way home. It's amazing how one drink of pop can bring this all back.

Oh my gosh, I LOVED charleston chews when I was a kid!!! I'd forgotten about those!
I had forgotten about cherry 7-up too, now I wish I could have a drink of it--but of course it would have to be diet and I'm not sure that would taste the same! You can remember a lot more than I can about our trips to the United States(or as we called it-"across the line"!). Love mom
