Happiness Is...

Using a new USB turntable to rip MP3 files from old vinyl records that I haven't heard in a long, LONG time.

Food nostalgia

Food Sticks. Breakfast Bars. Freakies Cereal. All parts of my childhood in the 1970's that were mostly forgotten, but every now and then popped into my head. Now, courtesy of the Intarweb and brilliant people, I can at least look at them every day, even if I'll never taste them again.

I could not get enough of these back in grade school and junior high!


Freakies and Cinnamon Crunch Cereals:

Nobody seems to remember these but me. :o(

With thanks to Dan Goodsell and his site The Imaginary World (also, his blog) for providing these images and allowing me to become 10 years old again.
