Going Back!

Memory's, Orchards! Spice Bar Cake!

Heading out to job via the beltway early this morning and eating on a peanut butter sandwich.
I had thrown the peanut butter sandwiches together hurriedly before heading out the door. Eating
that sandwich took me back quite a few years when I was still at home!

My Mom and I were working late in the packing house where apples were being graded and packed
into special boxes to be shipped out. We had worked all day at this and was asked to stay over-time to
get the work done. That meant we had to head out to get our supper.

We took the canal road east into the small town and went into a grocery store that we visited quite often.
We purchased, or Mom did, lunch meat, a loaf of bread and that ever so delicious cake that was a Spice Bar Cake with raisins and had white icing that was unbelievable. The icing was just right and not to sweet! The spice bar cake was not that big but put the finishing touch to our bologna sandwich and made working over-time worth the effort.

Eating my peanut butter sandwich this morning brought back the memory's of Mom and I working late
in that packing shed to make extra money that would help with something special
that may have been needed.

We finished our job in good time and everything had gone as expected. Heading back
home on the beltway we both had a good feeling about the job and were thankful that
we had a job to do and that everything went okay.

    Yes, tasty memories, as Michele said. Smells do the same thing to me. Anytime I smell new jeans, it reminds me of school.
