"Na-BIS-co!" *ding*


We have 2 crates of Barnum's Animal Crackers sitting in our office - leftovers from a campus-wide event we hold every August. We try to err on the side of caution and order plenty, which means there are always plenty left over. We eat animal crackers for the next 6 months.
There's nothing cuter than seeing a man with 30 years working at the University carrying one of these little boxes around by the string.

Hmm... Is that nostalgic for you? When you eat them, do you bite off a certain apendage first? I usually go straight for the head.

I used to have a strategy. Legs first, so it still had some dignity, then head, so that its body was just a blob. Sometimes I'd take little nibbles around it until it was perfectly oval/round.
Then in high school some friends and I decided you couldn't eat one until you made the animal noise.
So yes, nostalgic it is.
