... i'm going to reminisce again ...
this morning i was eating breakfast. i made some mint truffle hot chocolate (yum) and a blueberry bagel with cream cheese (yum). as i was schmearing my bagel, a childhood memory came SCREAMING back at me! i'm not sure why today, because i eat my share of bagels, but i thought i'd do a quick post!
in the town that i grew up in we had a mall. not a very big mall, but when i was young, i LOVED hanging out there with my girlfriends. most times when we visited the mall it wasn't to shop - it was to follow the cute boys around, try on cute clothes, and grab a snack and chat! the mall used to have a restaurant called "Hunk a Bread" - it was a sit down "bakery" that served ginormous hunks of bread with jam, soup and sandwiches -
and
it is the place solely responsible for my love affair with bagels and cream cheese.
before "Hunk a Bread" i never really liked cream cheese. but, apparently, paired with a bagel and heated in the microwave just right, it is on the top of my favorites list! as i was schmearing my bagel this morning the image that came to my mind was of me reaching over the counter to take my perfectly schmeared and heated bagel from the nice cashier! i searched the internet for a picture of the shop but couldn't find one anywhere, but i did find a FB group dedicated to remembering CV as it used to be - and there were some mentions of "Hunk a Bread," so i felt a little better!
anyway - not really a point to this post and i should really be heading out to class, but as i ate my bagel this morning and thought about "Hunk a Bread" and the memories that came with it, it made me smile. and that, my friends, makes me happy.
happy reminiscing to you all.
