Prune latte

M’m! M’m! Good? Behold the prune latte.

Many years ago, Bob and Ray had a bit about Bob and Ray’s House of Toast. The Backstayges ran a House of Toast in Mary Backstayge, Noble Wife, serving toast (buttered on the far side or the near side) and prune shakes.

And yes, there once were prune shakes.

Thank you, Elaine, for sending the recipe my way.

    From back in “the day,” whatever day that was. I’m so glad I caught on.

    That breakfast platter: sausage, bananas, and prunes. How did earlier generations eat such stuff?

    I love that mid-century modern cartoonung. Thanks, reader.
