"Granddad and Grandma would cook a great meal when the Star tavern was closed and all the family got together. They didn't have booster seats so I remember sitting on a case of beer when I would sit in the booths. It was always so much fun seeing my cousins. Great memories, the tavern was on the levy so grandad would go catch turtles and fish. Grandma's chicken noodles. The smell of stale beer, wood floors, radiator gas and that blinking tavern light that I could see from the upstairs apartment."
