Sweet mother of pastry products
We've lived in Florida over six years now. One thing that has constantly eluded me has finally been found. It was a quick store-run in the unlikeliest of places. But there it was, nonetheless. The very last one on the shelves, just waiting for me. Now, I present to you my victory...the quest is finally over...


[victorious!]

And it was good.



Hey boy take a look at me...let me dirty up your mind...



girl, if we have them here, i'll send you a whole box full of them ;)

And you dare to call me weird for the Doritos and sour cream thing. Those things are just...wrong.

But do they cheat and call "Ding Dongs" "King Dons" up there? They did in Philly and it always cracked me up!

oh yeah, he is my hostess supplier. he always has the goods man. whachoo need baby? we got ding dongs, twinkies, hunny buns, you name it we got it. no funny bones though. those things are harder to get then crack...lol

I don't believe we've ever actually seen a Funny Bone. Do tell... Todd bought a Hostess Apple Pie tonight. We haven't seen those around here in freakin' forever, either.

funny bones= chocolate cake shapped like twinkie, covered in chocolate, filled with peanut butter. My mom sends me a box like once a year. They just don't sell 'em down here. delicious. mmm

I'm blown away that there is actually someplace in America that isn't overrun by Hostess products! But, dude, I still get midnight cravings for the chocolate covered Donettes...um, catch you later, gotta make a run...

hey, uh, i just realized that funny bones are not hostess but you STILL can't get them. they are Drakes.

Never seen King Dons here. I worked for a supermarket for 8 years in MA and they didnt have then their either but I did see them on the order forms.

And Hostess Apple Pies are the best. I bought two of them last week while getting my weekly supply of Mikes. Theres nothing better than the gas station convienience store goodies!

Heck, if I had known, I'd have stopped at one of the grocery stores around here and bought you some. I don't think people in Orlando could survive without their Hostess products... ;)

But now I know what to get you for your birthday. Heeheehee. :D

'Scuse me while I go place an order....
