Hubby and I were talking about Summer...and I always have these quick memories that pop up:
1. My Nanna and Papa coming to visit with their 1 turquoise leather suitcase. She packed her bobby pins in an old butter container and she would bring a small bag of stuff. She was a constant declutter but the goodies were usually small soaps, earrings, a handmade item (she liked yard craft but she didn't keep any of it)
2. My green polka dot bikini from when I was around 9. Probably had more material than the average bathing suit of today but I remember those dots and that little ruffle on the top.
3. Forts under the forsythia trees.
4. Bagels and cream cheese, grape soda- special treats back then, just for the summer
