Your Cup of Cake |
The Story:
I will admit that I am not a big Pop Tart fan. But
if they are sitting there, I will eat them because I will eat just about
anything. But I remember them being a staple at family reunions. We would go
camping out in the middle of nowhere or along some coast and we would always
have some Pop Tarts on stand-by. Well, that and Tang.
