Just going to run a Chromebook and not upgrade to a Windows computer. Too many problems with the new Sims! 😱

As a kid growing up in the 1960s, I and all the kids I knew never ate these. They just didn’t appeal to us. I used to call them Necro wafers.

The closest candy to Necco I remember was Pixy Stix.

Pixy Stix was colored powdered sugar in a straw. When we would go to the neighborhood liquor store to buy candy, my friend Charlie would buy them and wash it down with a bottle of Coke that he would use a hollow licorice stick as a straw to drink it. We would all laugh at him and tell him he was going to rot all his teeth out. 🤣

My generation loved them. We used pretend we were giving our friends holy communion by placing the wafers on each others tongues.

But my favorites still are Good and Plenty licorice candies and Cracker Jack. I can't find them in the stores here so I order them from Amazon.

The tires are worn.  The shocks are shot.  The steering is wobbly.  But the engine still runs fine.

I like Necco wafers. Still get them for Christmas.

I had a friend who had diabetes. She had a roll of something that looked very much like Necco wafers for if her sugar got too low.
