Never the one to 'underextimate' the wisdom of the street, we went into a corner store, I bought us a handful with two cups of coffee and we sat on the side walk and watched the pretty womens walk on bye. That stinky old guy was right. Tasty Cakes are about the best things yo can put in yo mowf.
Good times, good times.

Ahhhh, Tasty Cakes washed down with birch beer - fond memories of a Pennsy Dutch kid living in Catasauqua (near Allentown). Couple that with the memories of Dad driving the family into Allentown to eat Yacco's hot dogs, Yacco being the busness name that the proprietors took because people had difficulty with their real name, Iacocca - yes, Lee was one of the sons; much later in life
IACOCCA became one of my favorite acronyms, "
I Am
Chairman
Of
Chrysler
Corporation
America".
