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...
Yeah the chocolate covered squid is still probably the weirdest thing I have eaten too. I would have otherwise said alligator but I think basically everyone who has ever gone to Florida once has tried that. Tastes like chicken, of course.
ReplyDeleteThe only clear thing that comes to mind besides squid is shark. I know shark isn't exactly an odd thing, but for me it was. My father-in-law made it the first time I met them and to me it was just awful. I remember doing a lot of chewing to pulverize it as much as I could.
