I had that Snoopy bedspread and drapes. I don't recall which color, probably white. Mom's uncle, who was a wonderful self-taught artist, painted a canvas of the bedspread scene. It's unfortunately long-gone.

I have that same Melmac that I use everyday. You CANT use it in a Microwave as it gets hot, not food inside. Seems to be dishwasher safe and even after these years they still look fine. And NO , it will break when it is old like mine

I wonder what goes on in that trailer? Probably need a sign that reads: If this trailer is a 'rockin, don't come a 'knockin"!

It is amazing to look back at these older photos of how appliances, bathrooms, etc used to look. So much color and style to them that doesn't exist now.

Mike, it appears that you've also been bitten by the John Waters "bug".
That's ok, most of his movies I also know all the lines.
Besides all the movies, I've got 2 of his books, a Christmas CD, and the Soundtrack CD of Hairspray and Pink Flamingos.

Back in 1988 at a house I was renting, I invited my landlord, Mary, over to watch Pink Flamingos.
She was..... mezmerized all through the movie, but the last scene, the Patti Page singing "How much is that doggie in the window" with Divine doing what nobody ever would think of.... well, the look on Mary's face was priceless!

Momma, dinners ready, I warmed it up in my own little oven.
