… to want a Pop-Tart*.

Sigh.

For a few weeks in a row, I’d see a Pop-Tart, still in its wrapper, on the shoulder of the highway close to home, as I finished my runs.

I started to look for it. I got excited about seeing it. I liked thinking about eating a Pop-Tart as I finished my runs. Brown Sugar Cinnamon, without frosting, please.

Then one day, it was gone!

But I still think about it, every time I run past that spot, which is at least three times a week.

Sigh.

I need to get my hands on a Pop-Tart.

(Since I obviously don’t have a Pop-Tart to share a picture of with you, here is a photo from my run this morning, instead!)

*This is apparently how they spell it – the hyphen was a surprise to me. The more you know!

   I wonder if someone ate the pop-tart. I mean, it was still in the wrapper, right? I think I told you this, but we started having pop-tarts at work (strawberry and apple cinnamon, both frosted) in the snacks area, and it’s sooooo hard to resist them!

     I think it was in the wrapper! I am theorizing that a lucky bird or animal got it!

     Yes, I would have SUCH a hard time. I wish they were wrapped as one instead of two, even though that’s wasteful!
