Hump Day Poll: Your Childhood Go To's
Candy Edition! I was thinking about my Mom's 50th birthday party. It was a wonderful memory because I worked really hard on it and planned it for 9 months to make it great for her. Because she didn't have a 25th wedding anniversary, I knew I was going to go all out for her 50th. I had family, friends, people from high school, co-workers (ones I knew she liked! 😁) and I loved seeing her face when she would see people she hadn't seen in a long time. One of the biggest hits that people talked about for years after were the retro candy baskets on every table. I bought ones that I knew were her favorites as well as looking at what were popular at the time. People lost their minds and were squealing like kids when they saw their favorites. I got all of the candy through Candy Favorites website and it's always so fun to look through. I was perusing the site, I was thinking of what stuff I'd want in the baskets on my table for a party like Mom's: Cher...
A pound is a pound, so go you! I guess that's the price you pay for properly sized jewelry huh? My rings are the same way. On a good day they spin freely and are held in place only by my oddly large knuckles, on a bad day they don't turn at all. I'm sorry about the cold too. That really bites, but at least it's not a weekend away for you, just a regular weekend so you can take it easy and rest.
ReplyDeleteStoopid cable guys. Hope you feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on positive weight in. I gained one this week but I'll show the scale next week. Sorry about ur cold but extra reason to have plenty of hot tea and hot chocolate!
ReplyDeleteA pound is a pound indeed! :D Good job!
ReplyDeleteHurray for the pound lost but boo on the cold. Started coming down with one myself last night, blech. Hope you feel better quickly and that once Aunt Flo leaves, you see even more of a loss.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if you read fiction, but if you do, Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series has a hilarious story line in one of her novels. Throughout the bounty hunter's attempt to capture one guy, he won't leave because the cable guy is coming. He'd rather risk jail time than have to wait for the cable guy. Every time someone relates the story in the book, whoever they're talking go blurts out at the mention of the cable guy: Those effers! (only not as delicately) lol Now I can't help but think it about your cable guys for sharing their germs!
