Love the old Coke cases. I'll bet they date back to the days of returning your empty bottles or losing your deposit. Lovely nostalgic image, Ann Kennedy!
Thex Dar - The little ones are well remembered here. My dad (born 1908) said they were called "nickel dopes" when he was young. The name came from the price and the fact that there was a small amount of cocaine in them.
Thex Dar - I remember back in the '80s when I discovered how just five seconds in the microwave turned a Moon Pie into celestial ambrosia. I do enjoy the occasional Goo Goo Cluster from time to time, though. You?
Wow, would I love to pick this room?

ReplyDeleteThex Dar I think the new G+ notifications are working differently, but I'm not really sure. Glad you like it:-)
ReplyDeleteDarran Hughes There were lots of barrels of all sizes outside the shop, some with very interesting marks and labels.
