But I didn’t Drink Coffee……

Remembering the 80s it tough. It was so long ago.
Back then Marc drank his coffee at the base, and I just drank Dr. Pepper. By the gallons. Daily.

Some Days are Like That

Did you ever have one of those days? I am having one. I got up to my computer making the “Marye I have Flatlined” sound again. Yep..crashed. Marc could not coax it back to life before he headed to work. That means that I have no access to my images, my photo […]

How It Used To Be

Life was simpler when I was growing up in the 60’s. The coffee pot made cool noise on the stove and it was fun to watch the color of the coffee turn from clear to dark, rich brown in the clear knob on the top of the cover.

Vintage Menu: Christmas Tea

“It’s in vain, Trot, to recall the past, unless it works some influence upon the present.”
Charles Dickens, David Copperfield

Tea Memories

This is a vintage tea set from the 1930’s.  I have to tell you that I love this thing.  One just like it sat on a shelf at Gramma-Great’s house. Now, she was not MY gramma-great, she was my cousins’.  She was my aunt’s mother and she was, I think a little over 100 years […]
