Where does summer go? It seems like it disappears so quickly. When one lives in a place famous for snow (i.e., Buffalo, NY), summer is quite a necessity. While winter can be fun, we long for its passing and summer’s start. And yet, summer seems to flyby at times with the great speed.

Lala: Mel you outdid yourself! Great job!
Lonni Wilson: C'mon, that candy thing isn't all me. Besides, that's how I was raised... my dad was a connoisseur of candy. Oh, and understand someone, I was buying bulk candy in junior high and taking it to school in a tupperware box in my backpack... yeah, a regular "candy man" and I loved it! So c'mon, jokes all around about the candy guy.
