5.28.11 Special Day

I’d never been this close to one before, nor had I placed one on my eager taste buds. Once there, we knocked on the door, the proper thing to do.
“Come in…”
“Happy Birthday, Mrs. Magoon!”
She inhaled deeply, squealing with delight.
“Oh, scallops! Thank you!”
On the way home we received a text message.
“I’m in heaven, thanks to them all.”

Licking her lips, she reaches in and chooses one of each-yellow, red, green and orange. The little sugar coated candies just waiting to be consumed. She pops a red into her mouth, closes her eyes and enjoys her SOUR PATCH KIDS.
