My Midwestern dream: get a deep freezer in my garage that contains a pillow sized bag of shredded cheese.

Things have evolved.

Last weekend at church we got a special take home box of goodies as part of the Love series. And considering Valentine's Day is Monday, the box included some candy- a few Hershey kisses and a box of classic Sweethearts. I popped the box of Sweethearts in my bag this morning before work as a Friday treat.
First, let me tell you. Things have changed in the Sweetheart flavor department. It's been years since I've eaten - what I remember being chalky tasteless conversation hearts - but I am here to tell you things have changed! The yellow hearts taste like lemon, the green hearts taste like green apple....whoa...so different from the I don't even remember old flavors. And not only that, the conversations themselves have evolved. I just pulled a blue heart from the box that said "text me". Do you realize how valuable this piece of candy would be to an 8th grader??? I'd would have killed for it back in junior high. Our conversation hearts were vague at best. With NO flavor.

So, I'm pretty much jealous. The new flavors, new sayings. But I'm also excited that, maybe just maybe that terribly shy girl or boy in junior high might just get their wish if they play their cards right. Text me.
