My 14 year old is a city boy, our caboose child that we have uprooted and brought with us home to Coeur d'Alene. Born and raised in Fort Collins, Colorado where no one would be caught dead wearing anything camo. His reaction to seeing so many people wearing so much camo at every function, camo cars, camo cell phones, camo this and that, has caused him to scratch his head in astonishment. At a youth activity he was amazed that one of his leaders' cell phones rang, with a ring tone of an Elk bugle! The fellow ignored the call, which prompted his message alert to go off a moment later. Can you guess what it was? A turkey gobble! He couldn't wait to crack out the redneck jokes and enlighten his city friends on Facebook to that unbelievable occurrence! Well, my sister Kerri made the latest and most unusual camo sighting last week at Cabela's in Post Falls. No, not an article of clothing - it was FUDGE! I will have to get Derek over there for a sample. Then he can say he really HAS seen everything. Everything camo, that is.
Janna- I feel for you sistah! And your son! My men love hunting....my dad, my husband and my son. It's just around the corner....deer season & elk. I go crazy listening to all the TALK. But I try to go shopping or something when it gets real bad, because I would have to bite my lip so much it would be bleeding. Sarcasim is my strong suit! But here's the funny thing I do enjoy eating venison and elk, so I let them go!
This post really made me chuckle, and I just had my husband read it. He smiled too and said the fudge is cooool! Maybe I should get him some for Christmas!
Well, I've seen it all now. Hunting is popular here in New England, but I have not seen camo fudge before. My son in law is a hunter, I will pass this picture on to him!
Janna, your poor son, I'm sure it's a tough adjustment. My oldest daughter is a city girl too. Love the camo fudge! That's not something you see everyday- in most places. But a wise marketing idea for an area where hunting is so popular, I'm sure it sells well.
As the discoverer of the camo fudge at Cabela's in Post Falls where I live, I can say that it was very tasty indeed. :)
