Let's see some!

Old cars are so cool. I have fond memories (or memories, at least!) of our old '75 Dodge Monaco.

I live in rural area, lots of antiques here. I collect tins mostly, coffee ones. I found a few from Colo. The breakfast call coffee tin doubled as a tin for raisins my Mom had it my whole life. That's what started the journey. The Breakfast call and solitaire where both from Denver, and yes that's my families old camping percolator and yes it works.View attachment 3729754

Almost makes me sad with how poorly things are made these days. Who would want something like that from today?

I hate all the plastics now days. Not only the environmental impact, but just like you say, the quality. I work in a lab and all our old glass supplies and tools are much more precise than our plastic ones, I hate it.

Give me a little bit. I've got to go and take some pics later anyway. Here's one for now:

From an old MG. Unsure what year. It'll probs end up in Danger Ranger.

I've been collecting vintage and antique cookbooks. This one is in very rough shape but I'm pretty sure it's the oldest one I have. I just think it's the coolest! 1909!

Do you try the recipes? Have you come across any recipes that are absolutely to die for?
