Have you ever heard of Lollyphile? I hadn’t till just now, but their selections look enticing. Pictured above is the Irish Cream Lolly, which I may need to pick up a dozen of, but if that doesn’t grab your attention you might consider Maple-Bacon.

Their Absinthe Pops sound nice too.

  • Fretting over the kids once they’ve contracted swine flu
  • The baby decides to come a month before he’s supposed to
  • A week back and forth to the hospital worrying over the baby
  • Jessica May’s Grandfather is diagnosed with bone cancer
  • Jessica May’s Dad passes after a long illness

Which feels a little like:
