I am a day late, but happy five years to akeyoftime! May you continue to house my inane, sometimes amusing blatherings for many more years.

Also.

I went out to lunch with my grandmother and father about a week ago and on a whim, ordered a Shirley Temple. I used to drink them all the time as a kid and it was one of my favourites. So here I am, sitting at the table eagerly awaiting the drink of my childhood... and when it arrives, three quarters of the glass is filled with orange juice. While I applaud the Vitamin C and other health benefits, I am baffled. I have never, in my long history of Shirley Temples, seen on with orange juice in it before. Are my memories wrong? Is this a regional thing?
