Be My Valentine

Happy Valentine's Day From Write By Bethany & Happy Tuesday Everybody, I thought in honor of the day I'd write this post in red. Hope every one's having a great Valentine's Day. Interesting thing about Valentine's Day...there's a lot of stories that center around the day. One being that there was a Roman Saint (actually I heard there's more than one) named St. Valentine--but one that used to leave notes for people. YA Paranormal author, C.C.

Candy Memories

Happy Wednesday All, Recently I had Nerds (the candy) again. I haven't had those things in years. I can't eat too many of them now, but I remember now how good they are. Definitely a trip down memory lane. I remember walking into the CVS when I lived in New Jersey (this was many moons ago). We'd walk from our house downtown. The CVS had lime green carpet and bright fluorescent lights. I always felt like I had just woken up and someone turned on a light and shined it in my eyes when I walked into that store. What triggers memories for you? What candy takes you back to your childhood? Is the candy still available in stores? (For the record, you get Nerds at different stores--they were at my grocery store). Have A Whimsical Wednesday!
