One hundred years ago....

I have this cool magazine....
from May 1916!!
One hundred years ago....let's just say...the world was so different then. 
Union suits....never heard that term before...lovely ad however. 
Gold medal...it is still around...the company must have always had a quality product. 
My mom loved Crisco...she made some awesome food with it.
I don't buy it...but I know it is still in the tub. 
Great article about liquor!   
If that doesn't scare you away, then nothing will..lol. 
Sweet poem! 
Funny poem...strange! 
Some of the ads were in bright color...perfect for framing. 
This tells you how to have a career with a camera...pretty cool! 
There are lots of recipes...like this....notice the sandwich fillings like tongue. 
I can't believe you would put tongue in a sandwich. 
Nothing cozier than a corset when you are pregnant. 
Heinz....love their Ketchup. 
LOVE COKE!
I could use one right now. 
OK, you could get a blouse for a dollar! 
A brand new car for $695!
I know they made like 20 cents on hour or something...but wouldn't it be great to go back in time and buy a few of these. 
Butterick!
So cool! 
I don't need to say anything about this ad ...do I?

Everyone had corns back then because they shoved their feet in tiny hard leather shoes...that probably came from a relatives hand me down.

Cute...a catnip mouse...a classic! 
Lets use this kids picture...even though his eyes are closed...lol.
I think the teeth are painted white! 
Fashion!!
So elaborate and fancy.
I can barely wear a dress every once in a blue moon. 
Life for women sure was different...all you had to do was be pretty (if you were rich)...if you were not rich...life was hard work! 
I see the dress hem in high enough to see the shoes at this point.

Everything is so frilly and Lacy!

Here is a simpler frock!

These hats are pretty cool!
The last hat I wore was a pink air force baseball hat.

Cleaning is never "Play".  
But it is always necessary.

Aren't you glad you are a 2016 person!
