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...
Not sure, honestly, if I have ever had a candy apple but the caramel ones are good so that is my choice.
ReplyDeleteI don't believe I've ever tried a candy apple, although they sure are pretty looking. I like the caramel kind and there used to be a place called Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory that had the best caramel apples because they were huge and decadent -- the hubs loved 'em!) I couldn't eat those now for nothin', but back then I enjoyed them. As a kid my absolute favorite was the caramel wraps with the old commercial of just wrapping that apple in the flattened caramel and then sticking the popsicle stick in them and into the oven they went. Yum! These days it's just sliced apples with caramel dip from the apple orchard that I like the best.
