This prompt actually made me so excited. There are so many foods that bring me back to my childhood.
Goldfish is definitely my number one. Goldfish to this day are my go-to quick snack, and it never gets old. When I was younger, the best way to get me to behave was my goldfish and sippy cup filled with juice or water.
When I was (very) young and had to behave in church, my parents brought me my rainbow goldfish and water, and I was completely content. They did not go anywhere without making sure goldfish were in my bag.
We had family movie nights growing up. It started with dinner, and for the movie, we would make this pudding dream dessert (that’s what we called it). This is the perfect prompt, because I just made it the other night for my own movie night.
Basically in a cup or mug, it’s a layer of chocolate pudding, then a layer of Cool Whip over and over again. It is delicious and so easy to make. I highly suggest this if you need to whip up something quick!
It always brings me back to those precious movie nights that I miss so much.
It’s hard to be so far away from my family, but I love having the memories flood back in and almost relive them.
