Tacky tiki?

I saw Lon Chaney, Jr. walking with the Queen,
I saw a werewolf drinking a piña colada at Trader Vic's

I close my eyes and the years melt away, back to my boyhood home and our tiny kitchen at 44^th and Primrose. The scene is all swirly, like when people remember something in old movies.

There is our Zenith radio, where we listened to “Queen for a Day.”

There’s Mom’s meat grinder that she used all the time..

Oh, and there is the deep fryer, also a daily staple. Greasy fried food was as much a part of our life as, well, heart disease.
