Slinky was a favorite of mine, all you can find now are the plastic ones and they don't work as well as the metal ones do. Blowing bubbles is another favorite thing to do. So glad you received some nice weather! Wishing you an awesome day!<br /><br />(((HUGS)))Dedehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02821482775305463539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2795332554006054086.post-61134116148689244502010-05-16T16:12:59.142-04:002010-05-16T16:12:59.142-04:00Just remembered...

Adds put in, by stores, trying to sell the clothes. I had great fun, coloring in these adds of the fashions, after adults were done with the papers.<br /><br />Wonder if anyone else, ever did that?!?Auntie sezzzzzz...https://www.blogger.com/profile/16170232476926222740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2795332554006054086.post-61296119924079752242010-05-16T16:09:06.010-04:002010-05-16T16:09:06.010-04:00Excuse my language but...

How do you keep coming up with wonderful idea/insight after wonderful idea/insight?<br /><br />Guess it's because you are so good at your chosen field hu? But not necessarily. You are good at your chosen field. But all people can be a lot more brilliant at ideas and insight, regardless of their field of work. <br /><br />All they need is common sense.<br /><br />But you know what they say about common sense? It's not very COMMON. ,-)<br /><br />And yes I remember things like Betsy McCall! Much more recently, Mary Inglebreit used to have a similar feature in her magazine. <br /><br />I loved paper dolls too! Had large sized paper doll books of film stars like Betty Grable and etc. And showing stars, dressed in costumes from their films. Oh how I loved those books! I'd copy the outfits and color them, over and over, in the copies I'd made. :-)<br /><br />Guess I answered your question, hu? :-))))Auntie sezzzzzz...https://www.blogger.com/profile/16170232476926222740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2795332554006054086.post-32946574295938074782010-05-16T12:38:45.875-04:002010-05-16T12:38:45.875-04:00Dolls, dolls, dolls.

What happy days! not a care in the world, propped on my bed surrounded by my dolls and reading...total bliss. Thanks for stirring those memories XXAlinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17191711137727270010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2795332554006054086.post-91786887390007865012010-05-16T00:18:06.024-04:002010-05-16T00:18:06.024-04:00I still have colouring books and crayons too.

My neices stopped using them years ago - but I keep them around for me when I'm needing some kid-time.<br /><br />My favourite toys were "My Little Ponies" but my mom gave them all away when I stopped playing with them. Wish I had them when my neices were smaller.<br /><br />Hope the cooking was over before the sun was down, and you were able to get out in it a bit!Ruehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09521209734809361226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2795332554006054086.post-35032232711842942182010-05-15T16:40:49.000-04:002010-05-15T16:40:49.000-04:00I used to love playing with paper dolls too!
