When I was your age...
Well, I've been going through my older emails, and I found this photo, lovingly submitted by my dear brother Avy. You may remember him from such posts as this one, and even this! He is officially a good brother; as you can see, he's linked to both of my blogs on his sidebar :)
Anyway, Avy wrote, "I saw this sign at Jewel, and thought: "It's probably my duty as a human being to share this with Toby and her blog. Apparently, it's a new brand of bread." To which I respond, "!?!"
So it's true that I haven't lived in America for quite a few years, but I can tell you that in *my* day, bimbos just weren't so readily available - and certainly not next to the olives at the grocery store.
Thank you, Avy! And everyone - don't forget to check out Lesley's cool new meme, Signs, Signs! Have a great week!

LOL this is so funny! what a name for a bread--Bimbo. i'm laughing like crazy here.:p
Signs, Signs
In *my* day bimbos were ALWAYS available! That's why they were bimbos.
a 20oz Bimbo would be rather tiny!!
I don't think I could ever ask for "a loaf of bimbo, please"
What a strange name for bread! Usually, they want you to feel like you are strong and smart for using their product, but not these people.
So funny! How many varieties of Bimbos are there? LOL!
I actually buy Bimbo bread and even my son said, "What/ Do you know what bimbo means?!" I had to laugh. They took my old bread brand off the shelf and it's the only kosher bread hereso, I laughed and bought the bread....
