In NM and in at least parts of Nebraska they remind me of butterscotch. Never smelled strawberry before.

I also read a series called Wonder Books, I think, that were non fiction, and covered subjects from horses to coins to magnetism. And Nancy Drew. I loved ND.

Loved that even as a sixth grader. Book two was Old Fashioned Girl by Louisa May Alcott. I must have reread that book 12 times. It's the first book I ever purchased for myself with my own money. I still have it, and I can see now that my hubby is the living model of the hero in that book. It affected me much more than I realized.ebookauthorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16948900570330153354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8275577.post-42599890257225103772012-04-12T09:52:32.097-05:002012-04-12T09:52:32.097-05:00Treasure Island is a book I've always meant to...Treasure Island is a book I've always meant to read and haven't for some reason.
