One favorite snack of my childhood was graham crackers. And if we were lucky, there might be a smear of left-over frosting spread between them. Makes my mouth water thinking of it. Now I can't eat them.

My favorite snack as a kid was cookies ice cream, any cookie! In the 60's we didn't get many sweets and when we did it was cookies and ice cream at my Grandfathers. We would get a big bowl of ice cream and 2 cookies, normally peanut butter cookies. I still love this today..

We made a coffee jelly, including sushi banana and mango. We used bread instead rice for the outer layers, then we roll it and the filling inside is mango and banana. Japanese creation for kids workshop.

I always loved when my mum would take vanilla ice cream, thaw it slightly and swirl peanut butter and honey through it and then refreeze it! Just thinking about it takes me back to my childhood!
