'Q' stands for the New York City borough of Queens. The following two photos are from Easter Sunday 1961, in front of our apartment building at 204-03 42nd Avenue in Bayside Queens. On top, Grandpa, Aunt Terry, Michele, Sharon, Claudia and Vicki - when there were only 5 Villers kids. Grandpa (Ralph I), Dad (Ralph II) and myself are in the faded bottom photo.
Here is a 2017 photo from Bayside Queens. I was driving under the 42nd Avenue footbridge, the apartment was only 3 blocks to the right...
Here is a Quartet of chicken legs being basted while charring over charcoal...
Here is a Quintet of vegetables also being grilled over charcoal. I counted five different veggies - I hope that's correct :)
A Favorite. How about chocolate dipped strawberries from Tidmarsh's baked goods in Ansonia. The berries were ripe, the chocolate coating divine. It was a tasty treat and thus my fave for the week. Have a great week all!
Nice pictures, as expected, Ralph. My twins were born in '56, five when your picture was taken. Queens is a good town borough name for this weekend. I like chocolate covered strawberries.
ReplyDeleteBeen missing you, I hope all is okay.
