A Tasty Trip Down Memory Lane...
I notice a few years ago that a little country store near my brother's house in Vineland sells pink elephant popcorn. Every time we go to visit them, we stop in at this store for fresh baked goods and I always say I want a box of pink elephant popcorn...and Darryl always talks me out of it and every time I kick myself for not getting a box.
Well, I was in Vineland this past weekend and I stopped into the store again but this time Darryl (a.k.a. my conscience) wasn't with me to talk me out of buying it.
It only took 2 pieces to transport me back 25 years ago. It was still as vibrant, sweet, and yes, stale, as I remember it being.
My tastes must have refined over the years as I daresay, as good at pink elephant popcorn is, I believe I now prefer cashew poppycock.
But it was nice to be 9 years old again... if only for a fleeting moment.
