On the QT

HOW COULD SHE SAY THAT?
Or, is she still included in the will?
At the Cracker Barrel, I always try to get there early and look at the old replicas and nostalgic fodder that they display.
Recently while standing there with our granddaughter, the old one--age 11, I admired the vintage edition Hershey bars they had for sale. I never remember them looking that way.
"Wow!" I must have exclaimed and proceeded to marvel at the old packaging. I never remember those when I used to sell them at the little snack stand after lunch at Casey Jr. High. My recollection is the same old blah Hershey's wrapper they've used forever. Back then though the chocolate cost a dime.
My granddaughter asked in her innocence, "Is that the way they used to look? Or did they even have Hershey bars when you were a kid?"
After she got up from the floor at Cracker... no, of course, I didn't deck her. I wouldn't have had the strength after that shot.
Maybe next time we'll eat at Bob Evans. I don't think they have old, old displays for sale.
