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 remember being on crowded beaches and boardwalks as a kid but I definitely like to stay as far away from that now as I can. But I love being on sand and seeing water whether it's the ocean or a great lake any time of year.
ReplyDeleteIf I'm at an ocean, then I love to sit and watch the waves and marvel at the unbelievably blue waters. Haiti was a great place to snorkel, so that was fun. If I'm at a lake, then I love to frolic in the water and enjoy sitting on the beach watching nature all around me.
ReplyDeleteI love the beach. I live a landlocked and pretty dry state, so that much water is just awe inpiring for me so I can sit and just look at the water (big lake or ocean) for hours. I love to sit in the sun and read and snorkeling is pretty great too. If I lived closer to a beach I'd probaby be there year round because every season brings something good to the beach.
