darchildre: the seventh doctor explaining things to ace (seven explains the plot)
[personal profile] darchildre
Today, I have had to explain to my coworkers:

- The difference between whoopie pies and Moon Pies.

- What Tastykakes are. (Oh, jelly krimpets*! I miss you so!)

- Who Caesar Rodney was and why he's on the back of the Delaware quarter.

Apparently, it is an East Coast kind of day.




*Y'know, it just occurred to me, but that whole thing in Maniac Magee where the title character keeps eating butterscotch krimpets must have somewhat less resonance to kids out here, who have never experienced krimpets. Huh. We read that in fourth grade and thinking about the book always sort of gave me a craving.
