i was at my daughter's house and the ice cream truck drove by and i looked at my five year old granddaughter and she had no reaction to it. i asked if she knew that was the ice cream truck and she said no. she's not a big fan of ice cream and so her parents never told her about the truck with the music and bells. but i remember how wonderful it was when i was a kid; i told her they have different kinds of ice cream treats (hoping they take her out the next time it comes thru their neighborhood). so the next day i went to the store and got a box of those drumstick cones, and a box of good humor strawberry shortcake. she wasn't crazy about either one but pretended to kinda like the strawberry shortcake.

that's when i started remembering about the chocolate eclair ones that i loved.

i'm thinking maybe she'd like those push-ups. i don't know if they still make them or sell them. i'll look for a box of those too (my daughter loved those when she was a kid)

==long story even longer==

sorry
