Peace at last. San Francisco was bursting with returning soldiers, many of whom I’m sure enjoyed this dinner at the St. Francis. Note the ad for the SF Symphony, which did not go dark during the war years.

I’m watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade (time zones) and I’m having a boomer moment because I liked it better when Betty White and Lorne Greene just told us about the marching bands and floats. These lip-sync mini performances have nothing to do with a parade

The notorious Chilly Willy, who broke loose in 1990 and made it to Canada, ultimately found by the U.S. Coast Guard on the Canadian side of Lake St. Clair. Probably Detroit's only Thanksgiving balloon scandal.

This is a bit long, but it’s a history of Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade balloon disasters and it’s pretty funny

So you’ve got your Thanksgiving dinner ready and everything looks beautiful, when cousin Steve casually mentions that he’s pescatarian now. Oh no! What to do? Not to worry! Because you’ve got a can of Tunies in the pantry just for situation like this. Dinner is saved!

The aggressive “American Only” disclaimer on the front of this menu certainly saves time if you’re thinking about eating here. Sacramento in the 1930s was aggressively segregated and xenophobic. I don’t think good prices can overcome this

Okay, one more pie and it pisses me off. Not the pie. It looks yummy. It’s that jerk John not being appreciative that Carol makes ANY dessert for his whiney ass. Carol. Girl. Grow a spine. Your feelings matter.

Well this joint has strict rules in place!
For a Chinese-owned business their Chinese Dinners seem to be geared toward their Caucasian customers. Bowl of Rice with Milk? Mmmkay.
If I were you I’d order fast before they raise prices again

This will probably be the last pie for a while because I don’t think I can top this.
It’s a SPAM pie, but the recipe leaves out very important information about the SPAM:
Dice 1/2 of the SPAM
Purée 1/2 of the SPAM
PURÉE. HALF. OF. THE. SPAM.
This is grossing even me out

I try to avoid menus that have specials cards covering up the regular menu, but the back page here is special.
THEY SELL CIGARETTES AND CIGARS ON THE FOOD MENU

Yesterday’s pie was a little gruesome so I thought I’d offer y’all something less offensive…
Lemon Jell-O and tomato sauce filling topped with tuna salad is less offensive, right?

Why do so many new drug names look like a cat walked across a keyboard and someone in marketing says “That’s exactly the vibe we’re going for”?

With the holidays right around the corner here’s a nice inspirational pie to set the mood.
Well, technically it’s a pie. With a beef crust that is in no way overcooked. And the filling only LOOKS maggoty. I’m sure it’s fine.
Anyhoo, happy holidays!#VintageFood

Well this joint looks really nice. That Royal Dinner should come with a bromo chaser because it’s HUGE!
