Draw Me like One of Your French Fries 🍟
In life, there are certain pairings that, after finding each other, become inseparable. Such as; peanut butter and jelly, Cheech and Chong, macaroni and cheese, Kanye and Kanye, to name a few. According to the experts (us), you haven't lived until you have tried the pairing you didn't know you needed: sparkling wine and french fries.
Merriam-Webster dictionary first recognized the term “fast food” in 1951. Following World War I, automobiles became popular and more affordable. At that time, restaurants introduced the drive-in.
Fun fact: The first Happy Meal was served in June of 1979.

If you want to try this pairing, you better get your hands on Pleasure Trip before it's gone for good! 🤩

Made from durable weatherproofed leather, with a cushioned midsole, and slip-proof outsole, Blunnies were ideal work boots for the heat, sun, mud, dust, river crossings, and other hazards encountered in the Australian outback.
