More nutrition inspiration from Time for Timer. A healthy late summer treat that's healthy and promotes good energy. And the flash from the past will put a smile on your face too! Laughter and joy are sometimes the best medicine.

"Time for Timer was the collective title for a short series of public service announcements broadcast on Saturday mornings on the ABC television network starting in the early 1970s."

MESSY, FROZEN, JUICE BRICKS
I love the fact that Timer thinks 12 orange juice cubes are a weeks supply of snacks. At 6 years old, I was so impatient that I never gave them the chance to freeze completely, and would scarf them down immediately!
My little sunshines on a stick where effected by global warming! I'd check on them every 2 minutes, and after checking on them 5 times, well, they seemed frozen enough to me.
I'd "carefully" remove the plastic wrap, which in-turn, would dislodge ALL of my "sticks", and after popping them out of the tray, I was left with 12 messy, partially frozen, ice juice cubes on a sticky dinner plate.
There was orange juice still sloshing around inside of them! After picking one up, the juice cube would collapse sending a trail of orange juice cascading down my arms that would pool up under my elbows and drip to the floor. "SPLASH!!!"
12 orange juice cubes didn't last for a week, they lasted 5 minutes! And as far as nutrition goes, I was lucky if I received even .0000002975% of my daily requirement of vitamin C from those messy, frozen, juice bricks!
But that was okay, because I was proud to have made a "healthy after school snack" for myself, thanks to some helpful advice from a weird little lemon-drop named, Timer.
I hope that you enjoy this treasured blast-from-the-past as much as I do.
Best wishes,
