Did you have one of these. Used to cost 20 cents. Lasted about 30 minutes.

    But I remember that this little guy lasted a few hours until he got stuck up in a tree!

  If you had a Sonic near you, do you remember these trinkets they put on drink cups? They discontinued them due to choking hazard. I loved those things.

    I remember those!  Zoo Piks!  I had a lot of monkeys, but only one giraffe!  Funny how silly little simple things like these could amuse us for hours….

     A group of us were sitting around chatting about our favorite Christmas gifts from long ago, and these popped up into the conversation.  I had hours of fun with colorforms!

Can you imagine trying to place this in the hands of kids now?  The kids who are used to video games, and phones?  

I loved Colorforms!  Such a simple concept to keep creative thinking alive in a child.

    I just had to share this with everyone!

   Check out not only the cars, but the clothes!  Bell bottoms! Cords!  And what appears to be a poncho!     Good times.

 

   (I’ve driven down this street (Lombard) - it’s the touristy thing to do at least once in San Francisco.)

 I remember those well.. The standard rocker was the comfortable predecessor to the 4 poster Canadian glider style.. Made in America,extremely comfortable and decently priced.. Takes me back to my rookie days on a sales floor.. Thanks so much Dave..

Here is one to remember -

 

 

My goldfish froze in their bowl.  And it got so cold in our house, the water in our toilet bowl froze.  

About to get another one - but I am pretty sure we should be better prepared although I am NOT sleeping in the room next to my neighbors pine trees - mine have been removed,

 

Good luck everybody in the track -

         Thanks for sharing that video.  Wow!

          ….and I must add - poor little Goldie! 💜

 

        I am very relieved that we are getting a foot to a foot and a half of snow with only “an icy glaze”. (That’s a NWS quote.) Yet, like you, I’ve been giving my neighbor’s tall pine trees a critical side eye! 🧐

         Our lows are in the single digits for the next ten days and our highs are nowhere near 32 degrees, so it’s a “watch that your pipes don’t freeze and haul out the roof rake” week!

          Take care Gail and everyone in the path of this storm.
