I believe the line is, "How'd ya like a nice Hawaiian Punch?"
And the response would be, "Shoooooo-ah!"
Just try it, Moony. You know I can take you.
The wax lips, too. I remember when the local store had open boxes of them and the wax fingernails... totally unwrapped in a box for everyone to dig through. Never gave it a second thought, either.

Yes, Rath, that's it. Pixie Stix.
Now Pez we mentioned in the original "Adults Smoking" thread. I certainly had my share of those dispensers, but I really disliked the taste of those Pez.
Remeber those extra-large Pixie Stix? They were like a yard long. My dream in life was to have one. My mother never let me.
This is, of course, the same mother who gave me Pepsi with meals instead of milk. She was an enigma.
I find the flavored liquids in those wax bottles revolting.
Do you know what are awesome though?
Peeps.
Peeps are disgusting.
Peeps are an acquired taste, darling.

Yep, I don't do Peeps. I did love those bracelets and necklaces made of candy. Wear it then eat it. The beginning of my love of jewlery.
Moony, you are my soul sistah. And my lovah.
Peeps! They make those in my town! Personally, I dont' like them until they're about 6 months old and all dried out...a bit crunchy. Fresh peeps are just too mushy!

If you're looking for things like Teaberry Gum, Blackjack and other "old fashioned" things, try the Vermont Country Store. I just ordered their steel ornament hooks for my son's first Christmas tree. They don't bend under the weight of the ornaments and avoid those dreadful crashes in the middle of the night.
THE VERMONT COUNTRY STORE
Like peeps, dislike peeps, but the END ALL of childhood treats are Candy Buttons. The only downside however, is that you ended up eating close to as much paper as you did candy.
Hmmm...used to buy candy buttons at the Vermont Country Store.....ahhhh...the posts are converging!

The Orton boys, who operate the Vermont Country Store are real eye candy.
Microwaved peeps...35 seconds or so... mmmmm
Anyone ever see the Peeps Research site? It's a hoot!

Peeps were not a favorite of mine.

I just saw JiffyPop last night at a Target store. That's where I also found some of those little wax soda bottles for my nephew. Plus, I saw this week on display at a convenience store the Beechman Sour Cherry and Sour Apple gum along with the Black Jack.
Those wax lips and mustaches were always a hit. They also had the vampire fangs at Halloween.

In Iowa, not. She is such a nut, that we have purchased one of those travel cup coffee makers for motels when on the road.
my God Dolly, er....how heavy are your "ornaments?"
