Lynn's Comments:<\/strong> Word for word this is a true exchange. Aaron and his friend Roy were allowed to go down to \"Fergy's\", the local corner store, pool hall and hang-out - and Fergy's motto \"buy or bye-bye\" meant that they wouldn't be there long. Fergy made his money on pop and penny candy and despite the difficulty in getting fresh produce into the north, the licorice was always fresh.\n\nLicorice, ginger and chocolate are my favorite diet-breakers and the kids knew I'd shell out a few bucks if I they'd be sure to return with \"the goods\". It's funny, this thing about licorice. It was my grandfather's favorite, my mother's favorite and Charles Schulz liked it too. I took him a bag of licorice allsorts when he was in the hospital and he lit up with a smile. This is what we munched on as we spoke for the last time. He died not long afterwards and every time I see licorice allsorts, I think of him.<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
