    Battle of the Atlantic/Merchant Marine

    My uncle got home from the Merchant Marines before the telegram telling my grandmother (his mother) that he was killed. He then went into the Navy. I'm not sure where he served or on what ship(s).

    Show us your vintage knitting and crochet!

    Oh my. You knitting ladies amaze me. I can't knit to save my life. Way too much going on with 2 needles. I can crochet quite well but I haven't gotten the gumption to try a sweater. You girls have inspired me to give it a try. Keep up the good work.

    going gray?

    I'm a natural blonde so the white ones coming in are looking like highlights. To be honest, I say let the gray go. Really. Some of the prettiest women and handsomest men I know are salt and pepper. If the gray/silver doesn't wash out your face, give it a go and let it go. And to any of the...

    Before and After?

    Lela, I love your hair. Mine is about as long. How did you do it? I've tried everything and nothing seems to work. I have naturally straight hair and it's a booger to curl.

    What's in your Garage..

    2001 Ford Focus 3-door Hatch and a 2006 Yamaha Virago 250cc. I'll trade the Virago (affectionately called the Frigid *itch) for the Vespa. Or any pink scooter for that matter.

    foam rollers vs velcro rollers?

    The beauty of you ladies truly floors me. All of you are stunning. Ok, so, now, the question: I have very long hair. Middle of my back and straight, no layers. Any suggestions on how to set it and what to use? I would just LOVE to have hair like Rita Hayworth. I'm thinking if set...

    Ironing Woes...Love the vintage Hate the ironing

    RedHot honey, you and I are sisters. I love to iron. It reminds me of my grandmother. She started me off with hankerchiefs and pillow cases. I iron just about everything. And yes, I have a set of sheets that just has to be ironed. And they are so wonderful on the bed. Crisp and nice.

    VaVaVaVoom Kamikat. You looked great. And the reason he didn't see you, when he is told how great you looked and believe me, he'll hear about it, he'll be dying inside cause he MISSED you. LOL. Oh honey, you got your revenge (for lack of a better word). :eusa_clap

    need some brutal honesty!

    I like option#3. The neckline shows off your pretty neck and nice shoulders. I like black but another dark color might be good too. Something alittle different. And I like the lace overlay option too. That makes me think more "cocktail-y". I would LOVE to be a flly on the wall at this...

    Strike anywhere matches

    Forgive me, I haven't read the whole thread but they are Blue Tip matches. You can strike them on your um, zipper if you have to. Quite hard to find now. I keep looking for them in my area (NW burbs of Chicago). I have a very nice match safe that has a striker on the side. I would love to use it.

    What do you ladies think?

    The pattern is adorable and the fabric sounds perfect. I wear alot of my summer dresses with bobby socks and white leather keds. I don't know how period it is but it's comfortable and for some odd reason the guys really comment on it.[huh]
