Take a bite out of this
(recipe included)
and you will definitely go back to
those nostalgic moments of the fifties .
when life seem to be somewhat less than complicated.
and dreams of the future just beyond the horizon.
rock n rollin was certainly high on the love list ,
as girls dolled up in poodle skirts with bobbie socks
twisted and strolled across the dance floor to the
sounds of the artists that immortalized an era .
there too was always something special about those
fantastic cherry colas at the soda pop shoppe.
hanging with friends and singing doo wop along
with the top ten tunes selected on the jute box.
and those ever so unforgettable nights cruising main
seated on the right hand side of that dreamy hunk ,
tight black leather jacket and greased back crew
his arm wrapped around your shoulder so tight .
yes , those were the days of the drive-in theaters ,
popular fifties model chevrolet cars
flip hairdo styles and tight petal pushers capris
and don't forget about that hula hoop !!!
how your hips swing and swayed for hours
trying to keep that hoop orbiting around your waist
in that continuous perfect circular motion
might keep that in mind , after a slice of the following :
