Yep, all of that and then there was the 1970s hit song "Dead Skunk in the Middle of the Road" which I taught my kids to sing. When you passed a skunk smell, start singing. If it wasn't gone by the time you finished, Dad would have to pull in to the next ice cream shop and buy cones for the whole family.

Oh, they would try to sing fast, but if they missed a part, I'd make them start over.

*** “Oh it wasn’t all bad, I lived on fried bologna sandwiches” ***

Pretty sure the first solid food I ever ate was Fried Balongna and pretty sure it was just tossed on my highchair tray

My Mom used to freak out when I told her about the stuff I could remember from back when I was just a toddler ;^)
(One room apartment back then)

In the late 60’s there was an avian flu that wiped out the poultry in the midwest.

Women would grind up pork, pack it on a stick, bread it up and fry it like a drumstick.

I have heard it called city chicken too.

“Cheeseburger pie looks good!”

I could give the Cheeseburger pie a whirl.
Also the Frank-Bean bake.
I’ve had a Sombrero pie but with a different name. Actually pretty good served with mashed potatoes.
The Lime Ribbon Delight looks pretty interesting as well.

For the two of us, we’d probably use around 18-20oz of cheeses, give or take.

“Most kitchens were in harvest Wheat..olive drab ...and brown.”

Then the 80’s gave us that terrible Avacado....everything in the damned kitchen was avocado.

I had a relative who had the same table and chairs.
We had an old wooden table and wooden chairs in the old farm house.

The 70’s/80’s proved that trendy today is kitschy tomorrow.

I’m a man and have my role. She’s a woman and has her role. The lord actually designed us that way. I tell people that if I want to get in touch with my feminine side, I reach for my wife. :)

Nailed it. Similar list for wife:
Support her financially
Support her emotionally
And that last one.

Oh, and it’s important to know that it is not about the nail. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaYq06nn0ps

That one was hard for me to grasp. ;)

How did your eyes not bleed!?
Do you still wake up sweating from dreaming about avacado appliances chasing you down demanding your services?

My mom refuses to replace something because it’s not in style. Shes more of a keep it till it dies type. She still has an avacado range/oven that refuses to give up the ghost.
She says whoever buys the place when she passes on can replace it if they want to.

She’s such a packrat she still has the refrigerator her oldest brother bought when he got married in 1951 an old Westinghouse (I believe) that has never been repaired and still works like a charm.
