Animal Crackers At Midnight

I was at work last night and in my travels I found a package of animal crackers in one of the vending machines. I thought to myself, "Wow I haven't had animal crackers in a long while!" So I bought them. I didn't worry about the trans fat content, or calories either, I just enjoyed them. I thought about it afterwords, and you know, animal crackers are really not the best cookies, but there was something about the remembered taste. It just felt good, like I had experienced a memory of enjoying animal crackers as a child. Sometimes it's good to go back to things from our youth, spontaneity and innocence for example. It's too easy to drift away from our youthful exuberance in the Christian life too. We get bored, we have a "job" to do. Maybe we could pick up the Bible and read a chapter. Maybe we'll say, "Boy that felt good."

I've always enjoyed a walk down memory lane. Isn't it interesting how certain things can trigger the memories? And yes, a good reminder of picking up our Bible.

What-ever... animal crackers are the best. Er, well... second best. The best cookies are those little baby Gerber cookies you get for infants to suck on (those have been my favorite cookies since I was a baby and I still like to get a box of those every once in a while ) But animal crackers are almost just as good.
