UNBOXING THERAPY: a few years ago, they stopped making Polly Waffles. It was my favourite Choco bar. Chocolate covered wafer with marshmallow inside. My first sample just arrived from Amazon. Taste test: texture is more solid; a little too chocolatey and not a strong enough marshmallow taste. Honestly, a little disappointed. Prefer the original. Be so good if they brought it back! #pollywaffle #unboxtherapy https://www.instagram.com/p/CjCL5RWLSuh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

((Fun fact: my brain associates man o war jellyfish with the pollywaffle chocolate bar because that’s what my grandmother bought me to distract me when I first got stung by one of those fuckers))

it wasn’t like I knew what was coming it was something far more mysterious than where i’d been this has always been too much for me i just can’t get enough/ don’t take it away, don’t leave it from me don’t make me pray for more - they haven’t been answered before now i’ll always kneel if it never goes away

April 8th
Oh. My. God.
I don’t know if I’ll ever walk straight. If I don’t I think it’s definitely worth it. So so worth it. God, you’re so hot, you realize? Seriously, I’m going to be thinking of this when I’m alone on a hunt for the next...forever? Probably forever. Wow.
April 8th ii
Okay dessert is never going to be the same is it? I love you. Every bit of you.

April 20th
i’ve thought on the words, the way your eyes were so dark - storm clouds and rough seas and the inky depths of the trenches still less deep than those cuts - i’ve though on them for hours days have past but the wounds are still fresh why must the words come out wrong why must they have a different meaning to each voice each tone makes them different - but still i would dive into you sink into the cold depths and surrender if i cannot breathe then the words cannot have voice words won’t exist in here no more

Fluffy egg whites, soft Replacing the ache of sweet Sugar missing now.
Blue eyes hold strong gaze, Both alike in dignity Like stolen lines, past.
Why tears won't fall, Belonging to the history Burnt to Ash

May 28th
So we just hung up the phone, like literally just hung up and said good night and you said you loved me...
And the very first thing I did was open my phone and hover my phone over calling you. Because I love you. And want to hear your voice every second I can. I want to hear the sound of your breathing just to prove you're there. I want to hear the beat of your heart as it beats for me.
So instead, I picked up this journal and thought I'd tell you that - so in seven months time you know how big of an idiot you are with. And long enough that you can't escape me when you realize how crazy I am.
Bed time now. good night. I love you.

I saw a girl with a Dalek shirt on today and I thought of you.

June 8th
Nana learned to shake hands today! Our darling girl is so smart. She takes after you, clearly. I love her so much and she's such a good girl, our baby is a fucking genius.
June 8th ii
So maybe she didn't so much learn to shake. But she did it when I had her by herself I swear. You didn't believe me at all, and she was a goddamn brat and wouldn't show you. Stupid dog making me look like an idiot.
June 8th iii
SEE I FUCKING TOLD YOU!

June 17th
when the wind howls, it's just the air jealous of your voice and how it's slightest whisper fills a room
when the rain falls, it's just the sky jealous of the tears you share with me
when the sun shines extra bright, it's just trying to compete with how blinding your smile is to me
but perhaps it's all a reflection of love - the world loving you and you loving me as i wait to be the earth again

Enjoy this crappy sketch of pink dog!

July 5th
This artist is almost as good as you, but at least they can copy perfectly the beauty you made. I can't believe I can look down and see this bit of you stretched across my skin forever. A little piece of you, a mark left behind on me finally showing that you were here and never left. I can't stop touching the way it is and the way I love it and the way it makes me feel. Garth thinks it's pretty but he has no idea how much it means that I will get to keep a bit of you with me forever now.

Harry fell over and shouted “Pollywaffle!”

summer is ending but what does that mean we’ll always walk by the lake we’ll always sit in what sunshine comes we’ll always be like this, right?

October 15th
I know you’ve said you’ll do the costume with me, and I smiled a lot and was clearly very happy - but I just have to say thank you again, even though you’re not going to see this until Christmas. Thank you for being the magic man that appeared out of the blue for me. You’ve opened up the possibilities for my world.

November 12th
Oh god, I’m so nervous for tomorrow. Will everyone get along? Will everything be okay? Will I have done enough? Do you feel like this before my birthday? If so - god it didn’t show, you were so calm and sweet and in control of the day and kept everything running smoothly and here I am freaking out cause I don’t have any clean panties but the granny ones. God damn Laundry day time but I’m not going to bring this up until after your day!

HE’S SO FUCKING TALL! WHY WAS HE THAT TALL?! WHY IS EVERYONE ELSE SO TALL? What fucking bullshit is that?! Though I’m glad I pulled off the surprise, your face was so happy all day and I love you.

Lost Foods
Suggestions from Reader's vs the previous winner.
NOTE: I feel the need to clarify some things about what constitutes a lost/discontinued food for the purposes of this poll.
I have never heard of some things in this series of polls and I'm taking people's word that they are lost foods. Some things from other countries or regions people suggested to me were things I'd never heard of. (Shout out to Aussie pollywaffles from the first poll. They sounded amazing and i feel for your loss though I'd literally never heard of them until they were suggested). Some things are possibly no longer available in the region or country where the suggester lives (Kavli, apparently).
I am assured by and endless barrage of commercials that Dunkin Donuts exists. I haven't seen one in person in a couplish decades. People tell me Ikea exists. I haven't seen one since the early '90's.
If it's something someone loves that used to be commonly available in their country or region that they can't get without crossing a border, international shipping expenses, traveling more than fivish hours, or a time machine, I'm calling it fair game.
I'd rather be inclusive than exclusive with these polls in general.
I am not counting things like that one particular special sauce that one food truck used to have that went out of business or things that people bake/cook at home if they have a reasonable amount of money, skill, and time, but most people would by in a bakery.
Note 2: I am getting some questions about the sherbet pops. The sherbet pop category represents things like Flintstones and Scooby Doo versions that no longer exist. I have no idea if the frozen sherbet push up pop type in general still exists where an individual person might exist or even where I exist.
I would have clarified in poll 1, if I had been more aware of sherbet pops in general except as something my mom liked now and then when i was small. I knew people were upset the version from their childhood was missing, but not the complexity of sherbet push up pop history.
Apologies, to anyone I distressed yesterday.
