Tiny treasure chest

-

I am a lover of old recipes. I love to find dusty books at flea markets and dig through the recycling book bin for tossed treasures.  One day a like minded friend and I found this little beauty. Inside was a treasure trove of recipes. Some hand written, some typed neatly, others torn from books and magazines. Names of folks long gone give hints to shared and beloved recipes passed from mother to daughter, relative or friend. We bought this little treasure and split it. I copied all the recipes I wanted and kept the tin and she took all the little cards and slips of paper that she cherishes and stores museum quality (she's much batter at this then me).  I admit I had forgotten about these treasures and it's been quite some time now since I looked at them. I remember wanting to post these on this blog back when I started it just about 2 years ago but life takes over, things become forgotten and lost. This morning I was making a list of all the goodies I plan to make for Thanksgiving tomorrow and out of the blue I remembered my thumb drive with all it's little golden nuggets of the past stored on it.  I pulled it out and started perusing the files and now I am going to start sharing. I will post once a day a long lost recipe, picture of them, if they are hard to read I will type them up as best I can. As I start to try some of them out I will post pictures of the finished products as well.  I hope those who enjoy this blog enjoy the past I bring forth in the shape of food!

Compare ours to theirs

Buy them today! Do you ever go into the big fancy Stores and smell all the perfumes and fragrances and then just about pass out from the prices?  I used to, then I realized I could buy comparable scents at a fraction of the cost from Avon. Then I realized they had others that were far, far better then those on the shelves. This was all about a year or two before I started selling Avon by the way.  Here is a list of fragrances that I put together. I spoke to a few people I know and asked them to tell me what my Avon scents would compare to because I seriously couldn't do this on my own and everyone has a slightly different take so I wanted to have a survey so to say about it.  SO take a look at the list and see if any of them just might be what you are looking for! All of Avon's Fragrances can be found Online . Angel or FlowerBomb to Avon's Passion DKNY’s Be Delicious to Avon's Femme Amarige or Chloe to Avon's  Candid Green Tea to Avon's Haiku Hu...

Lipstick samples!!! Ok almost every little girl loved when the Avon lady brought out the adorable little samples of lipstick. "Just my size" .  I still see that glow when my samples come out. Sometimes from those little girls who grew up an remember them, sometimes from a new generation of little ladies.  Anyone looking for a sample of our modern  day versions need only email an address and request for a sample bag.
