Woah, hold up....I don't see any mention of the word #FAMILY.

Is grandma singing with the grandkids #family?  Is the #family together?!?  Does this even count as #family since more #family members are involved?!?!  

WHY WILL NO ONE MENTION THE #FAMILY?!?!?

I'm guessing Grandma decided to take a nap earlier in the afternoon, which meant they weren't all together as a #family for an hour or so. If I had Pecan for a son I'd need frequent breaks from his Mr. Rogers-like demeanor. Thankfully I've decided not to be fruitful and multiply. #mywombiscontrolledbyme

I wonder how they would eat a candle salad....

They wouldn't, it would offend their sensibilities. What about Popsicles?

Okay, I searched the 59 (!!!) pages that came up when I typed "banana" into the search function and found Buzzard's recap of Michelle eating the banana. For your reading pleasure:

All I can think of is "This Little Light of Mine, I'm Going To Let It Shine".

It is rather little. I prefer a girthier candle for my salad.

Girls are not allowed to eat bananas on the BJU campus. Or at least that was the rumor when I lived in the area back in the 90s.

Which food outlet/restaurant serves these and from which decade? I'm guessing 1970s.

No candles - but remember the girls lined up eating dill pickles at the girls retreat when Gothard was running the show?

Ah, yes. The "wearing pink to the parking lot pickle orgy" picture. So, so wrong. :pb_redface:

The "candle salad" picture sent me on a spelunking tour through my childhood memories. We used to make something similar, but I couldn't remember its origins. 

I thought maybe we got the idea from our Childcraft How and Why Library like this:

However, I have the volume that includes a few recipes and it doesn't include the "banana rockets" that I remembered.

I finally found it in the 60s Betty Crocker Kids Cookbook:

We never bothered with the lettuce leaf or the marischino cherry. And in our blissful innocence, we never saw it as a phallic symbol.

On the other hand, times change. I can't imagine making these with my kids. Although that's mostly because they don't like pineapple. :pb_rollseyes:

Will they strip my SC citizenship away from me if I say that I like Jellybean Row much better and would rather live there?   (Fingers crossed and hoping!)

Watch-out @PennySycamore, Rep. Joe "You Lie"  Wilson might come after you!

We had those books! Well, they looked different. They were all a brick red color, not a pretty rainbow. I THINK they were from my mom's childhood but I'm not entirely certain. I remember scouring them to try to find something interesting, without a lot of luck. I think my mom still has them.

Can I serve that with my Sandra Lee Kwanza cake? I think that would be the most festive meal ever.

I guess I'm off to the prayer closet, because looking at it I thought, "Banana, good. Cream, good. But I'd serve it with shredded lettuce."

This could be an epic Pinterest Fail for oh, so many, many reasons.

I don't think I've ever heard of modest banana eating.  What in the world?!

Then again, I do remember growing up that we had our popsicles cut up in styrofoam cups at Bible camp because one of the elders thought the teenagers were being "too provocative and flirtatious" with them.

Antonio looks exactly how I would expect for being forced to sit next to the Proselytizing Pecan for the duration of a flight.    Poor man.

He prayed out loud to receive Christ as his only hope for Salvation.

"My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?!?"

What, you don't look forward to receiving the Gospel from complete strangers whenever you take a flight? 

I feel awkward enough brushing against my airplane seatmate when I get up to stretch my legs. If they started talking to me about religion, I'd have to start praying it was a flight that served booze and lots of it. (And I'm not much of a drinker!)
