"Cracker Jack" Engagement
My new boyfriend was such a movie nut! On our first date we took in a show, and as a treat he bought me the first of many boxes of Cracker Jacks. We always enjoyed getting to the bottom of the box where we would find the treat - usually a sticker or a small plastic toy. On the way home from the movies, we would speculate on what the next box of Cracker Jacks would hold.
One night we were at his house to watch a movie on T.V. As a special treat, he had gotten me a box of Cracker Jacks. I had only eaten them at the theatre, so this was already a great night for me.
The RING! I found the ring! The covetted treat that they talk about, but only a few people ever get in a box of Cracker Jacks. Wait a minute - this is no plastic ring - this is a real ring!
I looked up to see my future husband on his knee waiting to propose to me. We have been married for thirteen years, and I'm happy to say that I still feel like a newlywed.
