Poppy Pool Party Preparations & Shopping

TJ and myself drove to Karns (?) Food store in Hershey for food for the Pool Party. I was told they have good meat prices there. So, we each got separate shopping carts & did our business. I don't like shopping in stores that are new to me. I wind up going round & round...
We met up near the check out place and even though we had more shopping to do we sorta nodded to each other & mutually agreed..."lets get the hell out of here"!

The point is that a Poppy Pool Party is not about the food...it's about the children...

The Cousins, of which there are so many. Many years from now these kids or their offspring will one day run into each other and find out that they or their parents had once attended a Poppy Pool Party!

and they won't even recall that at Poppy's Pool Party
there were only burgers you had to make yourself...only 24 hot dogs and a can of baked beans
'cause Karns was an unfamiliar store & Poppy & Pea had had enough of shopping!
and Aaron father of 4 cousins was our Grill Man!
Remember...it's all about The Kids & the Cousins!
(aaron? aaron? your kids & their cousins are calling you. aaron? are you awake?)
