who amongst us hasn’t heard or told a story about a trip to the corner candy store,

nose pressed up to the glass display counter, peering inside to choose what to buy

with the penny that is tightly clutched in hand...

“penny candy” brings people back to a simpler time... and even though today,

it costs a whole bunch more than a penny,

perhaps there are no sweeter memories of childhood...
