Home Baked: My Mom, Marijuana, and the Stoning of San Francisco

During the 1970s, a notorious underground bakery in San Francisco called Sticky Fingers distributed thousands of marijuana brownies per month, as well as later helping to provide medical marijuana to AIDS patients. It was run by Alia Volz's parents, who met over psychic readings and consultations for information on the police. At the time, you'll remember, marijuana was an illicit drug, but the Sticky Fingers flew close to the grass, so to speak. Her parents dressed in bright colors and hid their illegal goodies in Volz's baby stroller. For those who miss or long for that colorful era where freaks rebelled against the man, this account by Volz of an eccentric family living in an eccentric city during an eccentric time makes the perfect recipe for a good book.
