I really really want the 8-track/cassette/LP system! But then, my hubbie and I both have large vinyl collections. With that gadget, I could start an 8-track collection and have something to listen to it on!

I’m late too, but we STILL have that microwave and after literally dozens of moves around the country it still works like new.

I know I’m days late, but we had that microwave, too. I remember that Grandma couldn’t go in the kitchen when it was on because it would affect her pacemaker detrimentally.

Good gawd, we had that microwave in my house when I was growing up! And I have the Merry Mushroom canister set in my cupboard. I was 4 in good ol’ 1978 so your post brought back great memories.

Oh scary – I knew lots of people who had the whole mushroom set. Some of it MAY have lived in my house but I think I am blocking the memory out…

ohmygosh, my parents had that exact TV until, like, a month ago. And I know we’ve still got the mushroom plates, just saw them at Thanksgiving! LOL – thanks for reminding us of all that stuff!

Happy Holidays!

My mom had the mushroom teapot – a Christmas gift from one of her students when she taught elementary school. When we cleaned out Mom’s things after she died, my sister and I originally put the teapot on the yard sale table, but after a while I took it off and kept it because I decided it was so awful it was fun.

So I am now the proud owner of a vintage 1970′s Sears Mushroom Teapot.

….er, does this mean I have to return the Santa pinata I just picked up for the New Year’s Eve party?
