yes should have been nooks
Honestly I cant remember where in the world that phrase came from, I know it's from my youth.
Being raised in NYC during the middle of the 20th century, ( or was it the 19th ) I have been exposed to many people
of different nationalities. In my mind (nooks and crannies) I am sure there are more that will crop up from time to time.
Could that have been from your area ?
Now recalling a term used back in the 40s by youngsters...( real george ) that was used in place of what youngsters are now saying ( cool ).
Oh Ohhhh I hope I didn't do what's called hijacking this thread, if I did I apologize.
