Guess I'm "old as dirt" because I remember just about all of this.  And the Corningware dish is still in use in my kitchen.  Tried a lot of newer things and came back to my trusty Corningware.Smiley Wink

I still have one of those Tupperware pitchers, only mine is brown.  It works great.

I remember all of those things.  Some don't seem that old to me!🤷‍♀️


 

I didn't think they seemed that old either with people saying their mothers had them. I'm sure I got mine in the 90s. But I guess that is still pretty old!

Like many of you, I remember all of them. The wax bottles of "juice" brought a smile to my face. I used to love them and bought them from the bakery truck that sold candy too.

 

@LuvSoCal

Do you remember the Helm's Bakery truck?  Used to love their fresh baked goods, especially the cream puffs, but mom didn't buy too often.

@SoCal Bred- Not only do I remember the Helm's bakery truck, I remember the Helm's bakery building on Venice Blvd. that was there for many years.  The last time I went by there, years ago it was some kind of a furniture store.  Sure brings back memories!

My face is smiling at your smiles.  I didn't reply as eloquently as you did but ditto to what you said about everything.

I remember a ton of these and I'm 35. I still love Hawaiian red fruit punch on a hot day and I miss the yellow Wendy's packaging- it was so eye catching.  I own a 70's avocado green Waring Futura 14 speed blender with wood paneling.  I remember my sisters and I would cook jiffy pop on the stove and then our parents got us a Presto air popcorn popper with the yellow lid and now I make popcorn using my Westbend stir crazy popcorn popper.  I have a vintage Rival croc pot with a glass lid.  I used to love Flintstone push up ice cream pops when I was a kid.  So many great nostalgic food memories with this photo. Smiley Happy

@monicakm  New things are great too- I love new things, especially new makeup and clothes Smiley Happy.  I love retro kitchen appliances, retro cookbooks, 80's aerobics VHS tapes, Charlie's Angels haircuts (I rock Farrah's haircut) Smiley Wink ooh and I love one of a kind antique and estate jewelry.  Your comment about your husband made me laugh out loud and smile Smiley Very HappyHeart!! So great! I bet you and your husband look lovely together and have a lot of fun!

@monicakm  I think your granddaughter can definitely rock The Farrah hairdo- its a timeless style and looks great in motion Smiley Happy.  Happy 44 years to you and your husband Smiley HappyHeart!!  That is so funny and cute that on your wedding day you thought, "how am I going to keep the same man forever?" Smiley Very Happy and look at you too now with grandkids and your pet dogs and a great home.  Your brother probably warmed up to the marriage once he saw how much your husband loves and cares about you Smiley Happy

 

     I bet your husband enjoys your love for glamour, beauty and makeup- does he ask about the new products that you research and enjoy? I've found that the men I've dated like my makeup, hair and style, but their eyes look so confused when I tell them about the process of getting ready and the makeup and beauty products that I like to use each day Smiley Very Happy
