Monday Memory

Cashing in on those hot summer days with our special home-made, ice-cold lemonade. What do bored kids do to kill time when school's out for the summer? Set up a lemonade stand out on their front lawns, of course. And when we weren't selling lemonade we'd be worm picking after those hot summer storms, bringing in a lot of cash from the bait. They don't call me "Resouceful Raggedy Ann" for nothing. The money would come in really handy to buy us some popsicles from Dominic's corner store. That's what you get from growing up in a downtown Toronto neighbourhood in the 70s & 80s. Remember "Everybody Hates Chris"? It was a bit like that, just not as rough.
