My New Fascination

Recently I have become a little too interested in vintage ads. My brother had this one has his profile picture for a while- and I think that's what spurred this new hobby on.



This picture is terrifying- but awesome in its terrifying-ness. I think there are a lot of life lessons to be learned in these ads; for instance- "always eat your ham" and "Don't forget the Tenderoni!" As you peruse my favorite ads please feel free to let us know what you have learned from them! I think this may prove to be very interesting.













It's True- we would all be a little happier if we ate lard!

"Hey Ladies- Get off the horse..."

A few weeks ago my friend Kristen and I took a mini-trip to Park City for the night. We walked around the main street and checked out all the awesome art galleries and overpriced jewelry shops. Then we really went shopping and hit the outlet mall! I bought some shoes and a few too many kitchen things... and on our way out we saw one of those kids carousels that you see outside grocery stores. Both Kristen and I have always wanted to ride one- so Kristen popped 50 cents in the machine and we were off! There's no time like the present, right?

We were thoroughly enjoying ourselves when the lights around us started to flash on and off. We ignored this and then towards the end of the ride a rather bothered looking security guard came out and told us to get off the horses. We suspect him of turning the lights on and off in attempt to scare us off- and the bothered look he gave us was because we made him leave his nice warm office where he undoubtedly was watching CSI or Law and Order. Sorry Mr Security Guard, but we really had a good time on the Carousel!
