Mike had a random request last night, that led me to go to the grocery store for him today…
Firecracker Pops!
He randomly craved them last night, so funny how we often crave things out of no where 
So he will be a happy man when he comes home to see these !
He loved these when he was little, so did I !

Scooter Crunches!! I my gosh, I loved those!!! And those push up pops. do you remember those? they were orange and the packaging was white with blue and yellow circles. They had a stick and you would have to push it up to eat it.
Oh, the memories 
I have a bottle of that coconut water in my pantry and haven’t tried it yet!
hehe yeahhh I used to eat (not firecracker) but really similar type popsicles as a wee little girl. In argentina there are sooooo many good popsicles and ice creams, and they were basically my meals! hehe
I just bought those popsicles this summer because I had a major pregnancy craving for them. I only ate one or two but my husband was totally into them and finished the pack!
My favorite popsicle growing up were called Buffalo Bills. They had a big gumball for the nose which I loved.
That looks like a great workout! And your breakfast looks delish!
When I was younger, we always made our own popsicles with juice! 
Yeah, I remember those from the childhood!
Best childhood treat – The Orange PushUp !!!!!
the push ups were so good!
Yummm your eats all look so good
and that was quite the workout! You go girl
Thanks girl! It was short but tough! Love hard workouts!
I’ve had firecracker pops, but my fav ice cream product was always a giant chipwich. You know, those super fatty chocolate chip cookies stuffed with chocolate chip ice cream? Yeah… my mouth waters just thinking about it. ha
Chip wich ! I agree! SO good! I have had many!!
i read your post this morning and wasn’t sure how to respond. my dad never left but i don’t feel like we have much of a relationship as we never talk. it’s not my choice but if i don’t make the effort, there is no communication whatsoever :/
on to happy stuff: my fave pops were the Flintstones ones (creamsicle?) i loved the scooter crunch as well! drumsticks were good and the chipwich. omg. the chipwich! x
We all have family issues love, it happens.
Chipwich, oh yum!!!! Sheetz has the BEST ones! They are HUGE cookie sandwiches! I think they are called oogly googly, lol! So good!
I used to LOVE firecracker pops! We’d have them every year at our Fourth of July picnic at the country club! So good.
They are good and make me think of the fourth of july!
I used to love those push-up popsicles. I’ve never tried that coconut water before. Maybe it’s time……
Have a great Friday! You are fabulous! Your blog always makes me smile!
Well your SWEET comments always put a smile on my face! Thank you! YES the coconut water is great! Happy Weekend love!
omg so you and deej have the same father story! her dad and my grammy got divorced WAY back in the day and he sucked at being a father and never stayed in touch. the last time we saw him was at caldor some random time like 10 years ago, he barely even spoke to her. so awkward! her biggest fear is that someday she’ll open up the newspaper and see his eulogy. thanks for sharing mama
that is crazy, and Im so sorry Deej has the same issue, I have the same FEAR! I fear a phone call one day form him saying he wants to see me because he is dying or someone contacting me about him passing, it is a fear, but I just have to continue on with life and not worry about that, and i will face that day when it comes, and know the best way to react, love you!
Did a similar work out cross-fit style – balance on one foot on the bosu (Dark Side up) while doing the upper body weights. Try it you will love it!

I used to love those firecracker pops! I think my favorite were the Flintstones Push Up Pops! They were the best!
I loved the pink panther ice cream from the ice cream truck. It had blue gumballs for the eyes! Man, I miss the ice cream truck!
Awesome workout and eats! I feel that pumpkin oatmeal is a must this time of year, and it’s so good nomnom.
I was obsessed with push pops as a youngin’, the sherbet ones
