One day back in 1896

Reminded me of "Citizen Kane," when a older man named Bernstein wistfully recalls an incident from his youth.

"You're pretty young, Mr. Thompson. A fellow will remember things you wouldn't think he'd remember. You take me. One day back in 1896, I was crossing over to Jersey on a ferry as we pulled out, there was another ferry pulling in. And on it was a girl waiting to get off. A white dress she had on and she was carrying a white parasol. And I only saw her for one second and she didn't see me at all -- but I'll bet a month hasn't gone by since that I haven't thought of that girl.

That's not a dress...

...it's a cake!
