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...

I showed you mine...

...now it's time to show me yours!



I asked my Facebook peeps if anyone would be interested in sharing their Christmas tree/decor in a blog post and I got good feedback.  I'd love to see how you guys share the holiday spirit!

So if you follow me on Facebook and would like to share a picture of your tree or favorite holiday display in your home, you can message it to me there and give me a line or two of info you'd like people to know, send me a message.

If you don't have Facebook, you can always drop me an email at mrs{at}successalongtheweigh{dot}com with the same info and the name you want me to list.  (Like your Blogger/Gmail handle you may comment with here.)

I'd like to post them either by the end of the week or beginning of next week so let's make Thursday, December 10th, the cut off so I have time to go through them and get them all in order.

On a side note, I'm pretty sure Pottery Barn used Justin Timberlake as inspiration for their Santa on my mugs...


"And as long as I got my suit and pie...cookies and milk they are my life...magic is fueling my sleigh tonight, let me leave you a few thaaaangs."

What did you do this weekend?

  1. It's rather uncanny how much that mug (both the actual mug and the face) looks like JT. Too funny!

  2. Justin Claus huh?

    I got caught up on chores, and finally got my tree up. It's a mess, but I like it.
