Tasty Tidbit

Walgreen's original drugstore was opened in Chicago in 1901 by Charles Walgreen. Until 1922 malted milk drinks were made by mixing milk,chocolate syrup and a spoonful of malt powder in a metal container,then serving it in a glass. On a hot summer day in 1922,Ivar "Pop" Coulson made the first malted milkshake. To the basic mixture he added two scoops of vanilla ice cream,creating an instant sensation. It was not unusual to see long lines outside of Walgreen's and customers standing three and four deep at the fountain. "Meet me at Walgreen's for a shake and a sandwich" became a common saying.
I am still free after the dental appointment yesterday,but don't want to say anymore about that until the next appointment has come and gone...I did find out it is not wise to say things in a joking manner to a serious person that is about to stick a needle in your mouth. Silly me,I should have thought of that beforehand!
