Do You Remember. . .

beach-mom — Thu, 11 Jan 2024 03:36:47 GMT

I borrowed this from an article on BuzzFeed.

Yellow, instead of the current red

I remember a lot of these. My mom had Revere ware with copper bottoms, which I had to polish every single night! I kept one of them. She had the exact same electric frying pan. She had the Corningware, which I now have in addition to my own.

I remember "yellow" Wendy's. My grandmother loved it and would comment every time we went how the meat went to the end of the bun! And we always had Jiffy pop on Saturday nights.

Those "looped" lollipops were a pain. The top kept flopping down.

I still use the wooden salad bowls I inherited - exactly like the ones pictured. I had Hawaiian Punch every morning!

I remember most of it. I just used the exact Corning ware tonight to heat up some veggies in the microwave. I have the large revere ware stock pot that gets used at least once a week and a larger sauce pan. Love them all.

Check!...check...and many more checks!!!😁 I cannot tell you what a WONDERFUL, nostalgic trip I took down memory lane just now!!! I remember almost all of them, but the sight of the Jiffy Pop and Neopolitan ice cream is especially endearing because it was such a TREAT for us. My dear grandmother would give us LIFESAVERS for Christmas and birthdays.❤

The sight of the crockpot and Corning Ware takes me back to some delicious dishes from my childhood!😊 My dear mother could make MAGIC out of a piece of cheap roast, beans, or peas in her trusty, WELL used crockpot! We had a brown pitcher like that one; primarily used for KooL-Aid, and ice cold lemonade. There was ALWAYS a decorative glass bowl of ribbon candy on her corner table.😁

These precious memories wrap a bow around my heart this evening.❤ I just cannot stop smiling!😊Thank you SO MUCH for sharing this feel good post!!!!!🥰

~~~All we need is LOVE💖

I saw this very slide show earlier today via Apple News. I remembered every single one of them! Great slide show and I'm sure others will enjoy seeing these items!

I remember most of these, especially the Neapolitan ice cream and the frozen orange juice log. When I was little, I could not figure out how that frozen thing became a pitcher of orange juice. I was around five and remember asking my mother if she was doing magic with it!

@VanSleepy That is AMAZING! You are so fortunate! That is a true testament of just how well things were made back then!!👍 They were built to LAST!😊

Nowadays, we consider ourselves lucky if they make it through the warranty period.😂

I remember all of them...lol and I still have a few of the copper bottom pans and love them. My favorite is the frying pan, I had a lot of good fried chicken from one just like that.

I remember each and every one!!!!! The one item that stood out above the others is the Woolworth menu!!!! I not only loved shopping/browsing in the store but I always enjoyed sitting on a stool at the counter and having a piece of pie, so delicious!!!! Woolworth's always made me a happy shopper!!!!!! Thanks for the nostalgic journey.

I got my Oster blender in 1969. It still works just fine, although I don't often use it. It's an orangey red.

We used to get one of those Lifesaver "books" in our Christmas stockinged every year.

I remember most of these.

Did Jiffy Pop ever bring me back!!

I remember sitting at the Woolworth's lunch counter sharing a banana split with my grandmother. There were red balloons strung over the counter which you got to pop if you ordered the split. We got 5 cents off and we were thrilled!! Such a nice memory.

I remember that Woolworth's had the best pizza and fried chicken. I also remember ding dongs wrapped in foil and push up ice cream.

Yes to all of them and proud to be old enough to remember 😊

I love strolling down memory lane.

We still have a lot of these and use them. Hubbs uses that frying pan to make chili.
