    Will The Real Mayo Please Stand Up!

    Today we only really use Mayo on hamburgers and cold cuts when we make them! In our family we grew up with Hellmans, but my brother would scream bloody murder if he didn't have his Miracle Whip. My mother always kept a small jar of it just for him. What a brat we used to think! My father was...

    Will The Real Mayo Please Stand Up!

    Over the years we have always used Hellman's Mayo (Best Foods West of the Rockies). But unfortunately, when Best Foods was bought out by Unilever the recipe changed. Hellman's no longer tastes like it once did. The tang it had was gone and it now has the consistency of wallpaper paste. IMHO, it...

    Never seen one of these.

    Our first microwave was a Litton Model 412. We still have it in our garage, but just store it there. It works, we just don't know what to do with it. We bought it in 1976.

    And let us all continue to hope that all of our units continue functioning properly during this heatwave!

    Goodman AC getting a workout

    We have an American Standard central unit. We keep it set at 77F. It was 100F yesterday with very high humidity. The unit ran a total of 10:13 min in that 24 hour time period with no constant run mode.

    GE Double Wall Oven

    They kind of look like P7's, but they also look a few levels below those. I believe this is just a regular GE double oven.

    Parts store clueless

    If companies hire them off the street, let our computer system handle the job for them. They can pay people less. All these people do is use a computer to look things up and read the screen to the customer. They don't need to know anything.

    Hell, parts for these washers will be readily available for the next 50 years. They literally sold millions of units. The coupler if probably one of the most commonly found parts of all!

    Whirlpool Direct Drive Agitator

    I figured we get about 15 years of use out of a set of dogs on our washer. We are on our second set and the machine is 24 years old. Even nylon wears after awhile!

    Speed Queen Set in Chi Town

    Anyone interested in those machines should take precautions when seeing them. That area is in the middle of the hood'!

    Whirlpool Direct Drive Agitator

    FSP has a agitator overhaul kit for about $12.00. I put one in our WP DD Dual Action agitator some years ago. It contains new dogs, new bearings and is a snap to install. Maybe 20 minutes. The agitator works like new. The upper part of the agitator pulls the clothes under the water and the fins...

    Detergents for a KDS-18

    I agree. The Cascade Complete powder does an awesome job in older machines. Just make sure you have hot enough water entering in the first place. The hotter the better.

    Rosalie's Zero Suds.

    I'll have to order a box. Not dealing with suds alone is worth it.

    Rosalie's Zero Suds.

    Has anyone with sensitive skin issues tried Rosalie's? I'm sensitive to fragrances.

    If This Don't Take All I Don't Know What Does

    Sometimes I do realize it's not nice to talk about people like this. But I try to be helpful to people wherever possible. Sometimes the people themselves are beyond helping. As for my sister, the gold digger extraordinaire her daughter recently bought a house. For a house warming gift my...
