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...
Everybody have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteI loved the Houdini dog - how on earth did he get through all those doors?? And he just sauntered away..... Great reads as usual. Have a great weekend!!
ReplyDeleteAhh, Jiffy. The white frosted cake always reminds me of the Easy Bake Oven cakes with the lightbulb. =o) I saw the video on our local news of the escapee dog -- a hoot! Great articles. I smiled about the pickles after sweating -- I'm all in! That is my go-to snack (and is it sick to say that I like pickle juice and pepperoncini juice? Yes, yes it is you sicko. lol)
ReplyDeleteWe cut the grass today after work so the weekend would be more free -- yippee!! I'm sore as heck and don't have it in me to have dinner, so I will be going to sleep soon. I'm leading a meeting tomorrow morning, then we're heading the burbs to get some things done. I am soooooo happy to have that lawn done, so that will put me in a good mood every time I go outside.
Have a super weekend and hopefully a much more relaxing one than last weekend! xoxoxo
