Blessing 40 - Pink Popcon

Old Fashion Pink Popcorn

Going down memory lane...I remember this old fashion Pink Popcorn that my dad used to buy me whenever we would visit the Oakland Zoo in Knowland Park. I haven't had one in years! Funny how something as simple as Pink Popcorn can flood your memory bank with happy moments. It's quite nostalgic for me. When I was about 5 years old, my dad and I would go on dates to the zoo. He especially loved the Oakland Zoo although S.F. Zoo was a lot closer to us. I remembered the rides for the children there. I loved riding the train with my Pink Popcorn! Right before my dentist appointment on one vivid Tuesday, which happened to be my dad's day off, he decided that we would take a quick trip to the zoo! Although mom said not to buy me anything close that resembled "candy"...my dad said that "Pink Popcorn" was not really "candy'! I love my DAD! I enjoyed every bite of it as we walked around the zoo! Then...(sad face)...it was "dentist time". To make a long story short, I think my dad got into trouble with my mom! I guess the dentist told my mom later that it was awfully hard trying to clean all that "Pink Popcorn" out of my teeth! Hahaha! All I remember was that my parents had to talk behind closed doors while I waited outside in the living room. My dad later came out and sat next to me on the couch. Then he whispered quietly over to me,

"Well, at least we had fun, huh?"

WHAT I WOULD DO FOR SOME PINK POPCORN RIGHT ABOUT NOW!
Just being thankful for happy childhood memories!
Happy Face =)
