My Favorite Mistake

















You know ... that great song by Sheryl Crow. This post is about one of my favorite mistakes ever. I got a box of candy for my birthday last week. The box said: "Don't Open Unless You Were A Child of The 80's." Of course I ripped right into it. It never occurred to me that I wasn't a child of the 80's. But it occurred to Sally that the company had shipped the wrong decade. So she arranged for them to redeliver. The box just came. I'm especially thrilled to see the candy buttons, and the Nik-l-Nip (those are the wax coke bottles with colored drinks). Also there's a roll of all-chocolate Necco's.

So how about you? What's your favorite mistake?
