I was a big fan of freezies when I was a child, and would always ask my mother for one when she had a free moment. The thing was, I never really learned what they were called, and instead of my mother telling me what to call them, I made up the name 'bagels' in place of the word 'freezie'. One day, my mother had friends over and I tugged on her sleeve, asking for a 'bagel'. Needless to say, it shocked my mother's friends when she reached into the freezer and pulleed out an icepop instead of an actual bagel. I thought nothing of it, and now to this day, at 20 years old, myself, my mother, my brother and my grandmother all call them bagels.
