St. Mary's, Co-starring Best Bakery

 
Somewhere along the line, I obtained this photograph.  And I know we've seen St. Mary's a hundred times before, but it isn't often I have a piece of Best Bakery in the shot. 

As a student of St. Mary's for 12 years, I saw so many of my classmates come and go outside that bakery, be it for a questionable lunch or just a place to grab a smoke. Best Bakery was THE hangout for that school. 

No message here, no history lesson today.  As I await a 40th reunion with those "kids" next summer, the image just makes me smile.

    I think we spent nearly as much time at Best Bakery as we did in the high school once spring hit!

    Remembering 2 cent warm, hard rolls, 5 cent donuts, 10 cents if they were cream filled....nice.

    Learned to smoke there during mass. Chocolate filled were 4 cents!
