Love the Tex Avery classics and '70s Hanna-Barbera stuff (Hong Kong Phooey and Captain Caveman). The Simpsons still have their moments, and I watch Family Guy for Stewie ("You know, Lois, this could've passed as banana pudding, but without Nilla Wafers it's just another one of your wretched...

Lucky 7 1. Bright white socks, freshly washed with bleach so they're REALLY clean 2. Doing a two weeks worth of towels as a single load in Mom's giant Whirlpool 3. Picking that hamster-sized lintball out of a FilterFlo basket 4. Clean, dryer-fresh sheets and blankets on a cold day 5. Adding...

That is a perfect apartment range.

1. Putting detergent in the softener dispenser. 2. Not following washing instructions on special fabrics. (My mom ruined so many of my rayon shirts by refusing to use cold water or gentle action) 3. OVERLOADING!

Why would Frigidaire (or any washer) even HAVE a 12-hour wash? These were the 18-minute coin-op people!

Neat machine, WCI or not. Do you have any idea what year it is?

I don't think it's sacriligeous to change the base cabinet (though I thought white went with everything). At least you're keeping the Flair. Good luck!

Visions is good for soups and liquid-based cooking, but not much else. I don't know why they even made skillets.

Am I alone in preferring open-coil electric burners? (I've never used a gas stove, so I can't speak on them). My mom has a '90s GE smoothtop, and you have to be soooo careful what you put on it--no cast iron, no Corning Ware, etc. Classic coil burners are much more forgiving (and make excellent...

Saladmaster turns up on eBay pretty regularly. The prices are high for secondhand, but still cheaper than buying it new. I've occasionally run across it in larger thrift stores.

Or maybe... A FilterFlo?

A non-burpalator Norge, perhaps?

Norge-Magic Chef connection Norge was the home appliance division of Borg-Warner. B-W sold Norge to Fedders, which owned the Magic Chef brand. The result being that, under Fedders, Norge-designed washers were also sold under the Magic Chef name.

Is it just the picture, or is the agitator cap smooth? I don't see any notches to hold the filter in place.

Odd that it's in November and not in June... My last semester in college I was interning at the campus GLBTQ center. I was also living in a house with a total right-winger, to whom I had to explain what GLBTQ stood for. IMMEDIATELY the atmosphere changed. I was about to go to bed when I heard...

You'll get a good many meals out of that range! It looks gorgeous, especially next to your cabinets and vintage toaster.

I saw something on a website indicating that it IS still used, but not in the U.S.

My mother tells me her most enduring memory of '50s childhood Christmas involved aluminum tinsel falling on electric train tracks and making lotsa sparks.

How about one of those tiny Mr. Coffees that drips maybe 2 cups at at time?
