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...
Your gifts were not lame! I enjoyed them and had a great day with you. I know we don't always celebrate it but I am glad we did this year. It was fun!
ReplyDeleteI love the Curly Wurly!! =o) I took myself to the pool and then the dogs for a long drive and overall had a very relaxing day. The hubs and I did not celebrate it this year, but did go to a hockey game on Sunday afternoon (first one in two years) and I said that would be our celebration. I made my favorite homemade soup for dinner and he made himself some steaks on the grill, so it worked out well.
