- When I was a little girl (yes, Tushar, that was a *long* time ago),
- chocolate-covered cherries were *the* gift to give for birthdays or
- Christmas. If you got a box of chocolate-covered cherries at the
- classroom Christmas tree, you knew one of the *rich* kids had drawn your
- name...I think they used to cost all of 50 cents a box, which was big
- money in those days.
