CANDY SHOP FROM MY CHILDHOOD, originally uploaded by skelethulu.

I went to the mall today to buy a pretzel after seeing that one episode of the Office, you know, the pretzel one. We looked around for like 20 minutes only to discover that the pretzel stand is currently moving to a different spot in the mall and is currently closed. Bummer!

Then I noticed that this one candy shop had closed down, seemingly for good. When I was very young, my dad took me to this mall and he bought me the Very First Ninja Turtles comic book (not the Archie one, the original indie one) (I lost it later on) (which sucks because it’s worth good money). When walking back to SEARS (where we always parked), we passed by this one candy shop, pictured here (imagine it with lights and candy). I wanted Jelly Beans, and my dad told me that I could not have Jelly Beans, because he had already bought me a comic book. Now I’ll never get those Jelly Beans.
