Say what about summer love? No one ever have a summer time crush, a boy that made you swoon? I did, he was a couple years older than me, I was eleven. He was my first crush, blonde, wavy hair, blue eyed, Johnny Gavin. I was one love sick puppy I can tell you. All we ever did was hold hands and he would put his arm around me but I was in heaven at the time...

gims, you'd love the old reptile house at the Baltimore Zoo. I'd freak in there. Can't stand snakes. Just saw a black one in the gorgeous landscaping at the resort where we stayed for the graduation. You've never seen anyone move so quickly.

I also recall the kids finding a garden snake in our basement. I was such a sissie. I had the little 10 year-old neighbor boy captrue it and let it go outside. I wasn't going near that thing.

I remember my summer love from the summer after eighth grade. I went to Florida for a month with my friend to saty at my aunt's. When I returned, he had dumped me. I'll never forget it. The bum.

My summer love was Davy Jones. Then dumped him for Leonard Whiting, who was dumped for Robert Plant. All in the summer of '69.

Wild Thing! You made their hearts sing! Groovy Lola!!!!

My first kiss was when I was 11 years old. I think he was 13. He watched too many dramatic kissing scenes, because he actually threw me back over his extended arm to kiss me, and before our lips met, I landed on the floor. Ha hahahaha, I remember how flustered we both were. I think I ran off to my mother after that scene.

I loved the county fair. I fell in love with a worker from the 4-H Office. He was over 6 foot tall, thin and manly. I still think about him to this day. Billy Reinbold died several years ago. But the summer I was 11, was the best summer ever. Ahhhhhh, young love!!!!

I guess you could say I began my interest in cooking in the 4-H club. I made stewed prunes for the fair (don't ask me why, it was an assignment I think) anyway, I won the blue ribbon and never looked back. Been cooking ever since.

As far as summer love goes, it sounds like age 11 was the magic year!

Well, we sure to remember this summer!!!! Can you believe it's July already?????!!!!!!

I guess I was in 7th grade when I had my real first kiss... at a party. Makes me sick to think about it now. I had many a crush, but nothing too serious. The chain my parents had me on, when I was growing up, didn't have too many links.... I'm learning that the length was[probably] chosen by me.

Chatty,
Spaghetti sauce is the only thing I'd get a blue ribbon 4.
I don't like 2 cook and do as little as possible. Daddy's cattle all took home blue ribbons and grand championships, though. Back in the mid 50's I was more interested in horseback riding and roller skating, stuff like that.
I'll bet you're a good cook, too! C ya...
