Yes, I'm that old! I remember everything pictured. The avocado electric skillet was a wedding gift to me from 1970. I used it often through the years, especially when I needed an extra burner, and finally donated it last year during one of my purge days. It worked fine, I just hadn't used it in a while and thought someone else would be able to use it. One time it always came out was when I cooked my pierogi on Christmas Eve. Hated the color but that, coppertone, and harvest gold were very popular in the early 70s. Glad they've passed on.

Wow...some walks down memory lane here. I'm 66, so definitely these all come from "my era." Man, I'm old!😆

The only ones I've never seen before is that top crock pot, and the polka dot thing on a stick. 

Pretty much know everything else!

My mom had those wooden bowls!

I still have much of her Corningware staple pieces...still love them...great quality and lasting power.

That old little, what looks to me like, a Revere pot! My mom had Revere sets, with the copper bottoms...that and Farberware were always her pots and pans.

Jiffy Pop!! Lol...we always had that. So fun to make as a child.

The Lifesaver books! Blast from a forgotten past for me.

Gotta say...is that Beefaroni? haha. Well...being from an Italian family...there was NO "insta pasta bolonese" in our house.

Good memories...tks for posting.

Also, not only Ding Dongs...but Ring Dings, and Yodels ALL came wrapped in foil...had one or the other in my lunchbox each day.

I still have and use that same 3 pc Corningware set, although the glass top of the smaller bowl broke some time ago but is still usable.

When I was working, co-workers used to say this to each other, Friday's couldn't come soon enough, now that I'm retired, Friday's seem to come too soon, where did the days/week go?!

What a trip down Memory Lane! At almost 69, I remember most of these things. I received a Revere Ware copper bottom saucepan as a wedding gift in 1975--that was the best thing ever for boiling water in a hurry!

I remember them all.  Loved all the photos.

How fun....I remember almost all of these.  

I remember being mesmerized by Jiffy Pop.  I think you can still buy it in certain places.  I've seen them here and there and I'm sure you can order them online.  I loved the Push Ups!!!

LOL, Yes I remember a lot of them. A walk down memory lane.
