It was real handmade ice cream and the lovely smooth, sweet taste of it on a July evening still lives in my mind. We tasted each others treat and secretly thought ours was the best.

Our treat was hopping in the car and going to get a real frozen custard at Lollies !! So delish !

And since it was July the heat would start melting the ice cream prematurely. So...you had to learn how to properly lick in order to avoid drips appearing on your clothes.

The grilled cheese and tomato soup struck a chord with me...one of my fondest food memories. Not just a memory though...I still make a meal of it now and then.

Rae Rae's on 441 has tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwich on special every now and then. Very, very gppd/

One of my good childhood food memories too.
