A Betty Crocker cookbook that I got in 1974 and a curling iron I got the same year.

Probably the chair/ottoman in the living room that I use everyday.  It was my grandmother's and is over 60 years old.  I had it recovered once and it's comfy and has held up well.

A blue topaz and white gold ring passed down from grandmother to mother to me. It's way over 100 years old.

My mom's pots, my stove from 1948, kitchen table over 60 years old. My apartment is almost all original from 1948.

Probably a cast iron skillet my mom gave me when I got married (43 yrs ago next month). I remember her using it all the time when I was a kid.

My favorite color was purple when I was 12.My girlfriend crocheted one for my birthday that year. My kitties and I curl up with it most nights. I am 60 now and have moved many times throughout the years. Still love purple too!
