Popsicles..Field Day..Don't want to talk about my weight gain.


I miss field day. You know having the whole day to run around playing games. Remember the dunking booth, water balloon toss, egg toss, sack races, races where you spinned around on a baseball batt?My favorite were probably the games that involved water balloons. BUT, the best part of field day was the popsicles! Don't you miss this kind? You could crunch up the ice and suck the juice of the bag. I have no idea what they are called AND I had a hard time finding a picture of them. DO they still make this kind? My favorite flavor of all time is the GREEN one. Lucky me there were always green popsicles available. I seemed to be one of the few elementary school aged kids that liked green the best. I LOVE lime! I came to the conclusion that maybe this was a preview of my love for alcoholic drinks with a hint of lime. All my alcoholic drinks now have lime in it. I also love Key lime pie! Okay so, i'm getting out of control here.

I used to also get this kind when I was at the pool. My sister and I pretty much spent EVERY SINGLE DAY at the pool in the summer. It didn't matter if it was sunny and hot or rainy. The worst thing about my job is working during the summertime. Sometimes I would rather be at the pool all day eating a popsicle or two. The green kind of course.

  1. My favorite was always red... in fact I bought a packet because they were on sale and the red ones are quickly disappearing. Their a good lo-cal, cold treat instead of ice cream!

  3. Try Target! And I am SUPER embarrassed that I wrote "their" instead of "they're". And I'm supposed to be an editor. Shame on me!

  5. they definitely still make those--my dad always has tons of them in the freezer. LOL! i call them otter pops, b/c remember the ones that had pictures of cartoon otters on the front, and they were called things like "alexander the grape"? i think they sell them (not the otter pop kind, but the generic kind....flavorice is another name i think) at walmart. my faves are pink & red. :)
