Peppermint Stick Ice Cream an Annual Treat
There are bits of actual peppermint stick in the ice cream. My mother always enjoyed this flavor which would be in stores around Christmas.
I’m in Ohio overnight and this afternoon Laura texted me from the store. “Do you want anything?”
I said Peppermint Stick Ice Cream!
She didn’t just buy any old container, oh no, she bought the premium brand– Graeter’s
Extra smooth and rich. I find it refreshing and totally satisfying. Nostalgic, too.
I know that Penn State Creamery has Peppermint Stick Ice Cream in stock now. It’s seasonal. You can order for delivery to 48 states. I only know this fact because my dear knitting friend Terry, orders up this flavor and has it shipped to her. She has a nice supply in her freezer.
What the Golden Ticket got Charlie
Yes that’s a 5 pound chocolate candy bar!
Charlie earned a one pound chocolate bar for his school fundraising efforts.
And then somehow he got a golden ticket!
He said it was random. A golden ticket was in one of the one pound bars!
Which got him this five pound chocolate bar! (Notice one row is missing)
Roy is ready for his dad to cut up another row for us to share.
Reading While You Wait
Look What Laura Found
I love that she saw it and thought of me and took a picture and sent it.

Handy Hotel Tip from My Friend Joanne
My friend Joanne travels a lot. She mentioned she takes off a plastic cover from a cup in the hotel room. She slips the remote inside. That way you aren’t touching where a thousand fingers have made their selections on the remote.
I remembered to do it today

Six years ago I posted a photograph of one of his works at the Columbus library Duo with Chair suspended from the ceiling
Note: Just added this little poem shared by Judy Kindergarten teacher extraordinaire.
There was a boy,
A tiny mite,
Who tried to fly
A mighty kite
But then at last
It came to pass
Both boy and kite flew out of sight!
One of my favorite kindergarten poems❤️ Judy
I read it every year to my kindergarten class. Then each child had to predict what happened to the boy and /or draw a picture or how do you think his mother felt when she saw him?
One of the best pictures was Superman saved him!!! We read it every March! We painted kites and made pattern kite tails. Oh how I miss those days!! Judy S
Creamy Rice Pudding and Custard in Cans
I saw these two Ambrosia cans on the shelf in the World Market (and there are other pudding choices in the store) in Columbus Ohio.
I didn’t purchase but was curious.
Perhaps a reader has tasted a these products and can give a review.
