25 years ago, I was able to buy 3 candy bars for a dollar at the local Lucky’s supermarket. I typically chose a Nestle Crunch bar, an Annabelle’s Rocky Road, and a peanut M&Ms. That particular combination really hit the spot. This was before King Size bars, and before king size prices.

Right around the same time, the local Alpha Beta supermarket sold day-old dozen donuts for $1.99. During summer vacations, my cousins and I would ride our bikes there and pick up a box in the evening, to eat while watching rented movies or between making home videos of our own.

Those days were so fun.

Sent through my iPhone direct from Madagascar:

I’ve been feeding lemurs for the past month or so and haven’t had access to the internet. I was finally able to grab a plane to Kenya and purchase an iPhone from a newly opened Apple store in downtown Nairobi (Waaqni sii haa kennu Oromo!). It’s pretty cool. Anyways, I’m doing fine and will update you ASAP. Chow for now!
