    Bulky '50s Admiral Fridge $250 (San Francisco)

    The range mentioned in the ad is pretty nice too - if a bit older than the fridge I think.

    At The Dawn of Television

    As an aside, among the performers on the first day of BBC broadcasting were American performers Buck & Bubbles.

    Whirlpool microwave perfect for cooking

    I was just in an "ethnic" grocery on the north side (basically had a bit of everything, especially Eastern Europe) and they had Polish made and labeled Nutella!

    Now THIS is a Halloween costume!

    I think the dad may be more into it than the kids - from what I saw last night, some of the kids could have cared less.

    Who would have manufactured this 70s Sears Fridge?

    I just noticed that in the first picture you can see the reflection of what looks like two people.

    Is that like the TV show "Diva on a Dime"?

    Welbilt gas stove - New York $200

    Looks like it sold, but I've seen some with the burners "in the middle" - I wonder if it was a "design feature" or just using the same tooling/parts as a smaller range?

    How well does the Hoover Constellation suck?

    I too, grew up with one (the sort of orange/butterscotch color). It worked well and was fun to pull around. When my grandmother moved we got her blue one, which my grandfather had thoughtfully put wheels on... My mother foolishly got rid of ours to only find out it worked better than Babcia's...

    Pilot lights

    I've never had a problem with my range pilots going out (O'Keefe & Merritt deVille, it has 5 pilots - 1 for each two burner pair [total 2], 1 for the griddle/5th burner and one for the broiler and one for the oven). It does keep the kitchen a bit warmer, but not drastically. My previous...

    Old Cooking shows

    Didn't Ming Tsai have a cooking show before he became a big shot restaurantuer? Yes, "Cooking with Ming", wasn't it? I've eaten in one of his restaurants (The Blue Dragon iirc) - I thought it was good, my dinner companion felt it wasn't that great.

    Vintage Wringer Washer - Start Laughing

    Joan did NOT do her own decor - trust me on this one. This is who did her interiors for the rest of her life (and you can find him and his partner in her wedding photos, which were even re-created even though he wasn't included in Mommie Dearest).

    Vintage Wringer Washer - Start Laughing

    According to my best friend's mom her parents were the Lunt's neighbors there (at Ten Chimneys), though that might just have meant "same town" or nearby - her family is from Waukesha originally so no shock there. I can't remember if it was Joan "wire hanger" Crawford or Carol "raspberries"...

    WHO IS BETTINA, SWEETIE? The Queen of Minimalism of course... http://www.tagtele.com/img/videos/thumbs640x360/e/6/a/63628_default.jpg She renovated Ed's kitchen in one episode. There was a ring of fire on the floor to "make it cozy for the client."

    Genesee Depot, Wisconsin It's open to the public, what's it called, Ten Chimneys (or was it twelve)?

    Sears Kenmore Elite Washer and Dryer Set - $40 and missed it by a day

    I think we need Blue Light Special washers in such case... I just find it hilarious that Sears would sell thousands of "limited editions" (like a Ford Ltd and whatnot).

    Vintage Wringer Washer - Start Laughing

    It's not far from the Funt and Mundane country pad, maybe it was theirs?

    Old Cooking shows

    I remember going to what I think was the Frugal Gourmet's shop when I was a kid - in the then no man's land of the "near north side" - now specifically River North.

    Ab Fab This Wheel's on Fire

    Of course, it all became simply a ring of fire with no stairs when Bettina redid it in "White Box"....

    Sears Kenmore Elite Washer and Dryer Set - $40 and missed it by a day

    I find it funny that Sears, a mass retailer, would have something truly "Limited Edition"....
