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 can't believe it's the start of daylight savings already, wow! Have a great weekend everybody!
ReplyDeleteGreat articles! The before/after one was quite cool. I heard on the radio this week of another woman who did a before/after and it was the complete opposite of what we'd expect. She used to be a work-out fanatic and was super cut and had to maintain such a strict lifestyle that she hated her life. She finally said screw this and actually gained some wait and stopped obsessing with having this super defined body and she looks amazing- and it so much happier. It was really cool.
ReplyDeleteI've already been to the burbs and back this morning to drop off the tax stuff (phew!). Now it's taking the pooches for a drive in the (frigid) sunshine. Have a meeting tomorrow then lunch with a friend of mom's in the burbs. And somewhere along the way I need to get some serious loads of laundry done. Riveting stuff I tell ya. lol
