sweet memory

I had lunch today at the food court at the mall. A young friend of mine has just started working there and we had lunch together before her shift started.  I had a tasty, and fairly healthy lunch of pasta and a tomato and cucumber salad, and was going to make do with water to drink when I saw that they served frozen Cokes.  This is one drink I can't resist and my addiction goes back 50 years.  50 years ago this coming July, my husband and I spent part of our honeymoon at the Hemisfair in San Antonio, Texas.  It was so exciting.  The River Walk was brand new and there were all kinds of fascinating exhibits, excellent restaurants, fun rides, and, wonder of wonders, an amazing new drink - frozen Coke.  Delicious at any time, this drink was absolutely amazing on a hot July day in Texas. Ever since, summer or winter, if I pass a frozen Coke machine I feel compelled to buy one.  So sweet, so icy cold.  Luckily, I don't eat fast food very often so I only average one or two of these yummy drinks a year. Probably this makes them taste all the sweeter.  This is one addiction I don't  plan to fight.
