Childhood Treasures - Cracker Jack
One of my favorite childhood memories is when my Dad bought me a box of Cracker Jack. The small box featured a sailor boy and his dog. I’d gaze at him for a time before I opened the box as I wanted to prolong the anticipation of the small surprise inside. Cracker Jacks were a double treasure; I eat the caramel popcorn as well as have the bonus of a tiny whistle or miniature comic book. The most frequent was a small top. I’d set it spinning and wonder why it didn’t fall over.
Hey Mom, Do you suppose there is a connection with your dad's name a.k.a. Jack?
