Here is one of my Christmas treats - Danish Rosetter
My family is not Danish, but I grew up attending the Scandinavian Festival near us every year, and Rosetter and Ebelskiver became traditional in our family. One of the first housewarming gifts I received from my mother was a Rosetter iron...
I'm no expert on anything in this area, but I was looking through some threads here this morning and thought some of you might appreciate this online photo album, with photos provided by the veteran's group of the 78th FG, which flew out of Hamilton Field in California.

Hi girls,
I have finally purchased at bunch of vintage aluminum curlers (Hollywood and Tip-Top) and wondered if I can ask for your experiences with them and if anyone has replaced the rubber bits on theirs (and what did you find that worked for that).
The thing that appeals to me about...
I just watched this episode which is set in WWII - two of the women meet some ladies in a nursing home who tell them their stories of living at the base and how they became friends and so on.
Did anyone else watch it? I thought they did a nice job.
It's still available online if you have...
Hi Everyone,

I will be about 35 minutes north of Phoenix and about 45 minutes to 1 hour south of Prescott.

Hi Ladies of the Lounge - I just thought I would let you all know that I have a couple of slips listed on the bay.

I wanted to share these snapshots I just picked up. I don't know who any of the people are, and there are no notes on the backs, so I gave them some titles myself. I fell in love with them when I saw them and the feelings they elicit.
"United We Stand"
"Shoo Shoo Baby"...
Well, I finally got those great Victory transfers cleaned up and made some lovely flour sack tea towels.

Hello, Gentlemen
I'm trying to help a good friend with purchasing a summer suit, and I wonder if anyone has any advice regarding the differences between silk, linen, or tropical wool. The idea is to find the lightest, coolest suit possible without looking sloppy.
Your experience and...
My Mom put me wise to this today - she knows my passion for America's history and the WWII era in particular. There are a bunch of United Newreel Motion Pictures from WWII and also Department of the Interior Motion Pictures - mostly from the 30's!
I highly recommend checking this out - I have...
I am so happy, I'm jumping up and down clapping!
And it almost matches my nightstand that I've been carting around with me every move for years now... [I love it even though it's pretty beat up]

Just got this original 1942 decal today to add to my Victory Collection - I'm very big on the WWII Homefront / Victory items.
It's too fragile to use as-is, but I'm thinking I'll make a water slide decal out of it and put it on my car window...
Any of you swell gents who can give me advice will be much appreciated....
My dad looks great in a hat, and we were talking it over a bit today whilst celebrating his 61st birthday (he doesn't look his age...) and I've been thinking for a while that getting him a fedora would be a nice...
I'm so excited - I got this one on ebay and it's unused! But not for long - it will soon become my ultra-cool vintage - now scrapbook of Hamilton Field AFB where I live! I can hardly wait to get started...
