Oh those
good old days! Our childhood days! Then our neighborhoods were not so busy, not
so crowded. Hawkers shouting ‘reshmi mithai’ poured honey into the ears of
children. We used to throng them and watch how they spun it on their magical
machine.
The line in
your report, ‘’How and when this spun sugar treat was introduced en Bangladesh
is unknown, but its popularity, amongst children has never dwindled…’’ (The
Spun Sugar Confection, April 29) is encouraging. It is good to know that
certain things in life do not change! I personally walked down the memory lane
after reading your piece.
