When I Was a Little Girl...

...popsicles were made in this.
 Grape ones (with juice from the grapes from our own vine) and pineapple ones are what I remember.  I loved them both...and still do to this day.  

Now, 30 years later, this popsicle mold is cracked and broken, and most of the pieces have disappeared.  Newer popsicle molds now live in my freezer, making delicious grape and pineapple popsicles for my band of boys.  The time has come to say goodbye to the old one.
But before I do, I'll pause for a moment to remember one of summer's simple pleasures: the homemade popsicles I had when I was a child.  :)

  1. We had a set like this too. I wonder what happened to it.
