Pop Last night a whole bunch of us met at Pop’s for an informal “Fight The Makeover” meeting. More on that later. While we were there, Pop told me something interesting. Today is actually an important day in history… especially if you own a restaurant like Pop’s, or love milkshakes.

On this day in 1833, the Soda Fountain was born. Seriously. Yeah, I know, WE didn’t hear that in school either! Probably because 1833 was a very looonnggggggg time ago… way before iPods and computers…  like back when dinosaurs roamed the earth. I guess the big scalies wanted something really yummy to wash down all those leafy green trees (and other dinosaurs) they were eating. So, a clever Utahraptor teamed up with an Anchisaurus who liked to play with his food, and together they created Coke floats and cherry phosphates. Could happen. 

Okay, I’m messing with you, but I thought we could all use a little break from the Makeover stress. Which reminds me, make sure you read my Ronnie’s Rule beauty tip tomorrow, cause it’s all about stress.

Now, go get yourself a big chocolate malt (my favorite) and celebrate National Soda Fountain Day! It really IS today. You’ll make Pop Tate very happy.

Love,


Ronnie
