I loved spending time in the summer at my grandparents' home. It was a peaceful place compared to my own home and my grandmother's food was always great.
My grandparents never had junk food in their home. Dessert was an orange rather than a Twinkie. But, once a week, my grandmother did treat herself to a richly creamy and sugary dessert. After church on Sunday, she would go to Astoria Bakery and buy herself a sfogliatelle. I am going to go out today to find myself a sfogliatelle. This means that I am not going to be able to write much now. Instead, I will leave you with film clips to watch. In line with this week's man-child theme, these film clips feature adults acting like children.
Have a nice day.
