Shoulder pads, dolman sleeves, leggings, stirrup pants, jelly shoes, big button earrings and a lot of hair. It shall be an adventure for sure. Though, I think the 80's are really big in general fashion right now, so I bet you can get some clothes easily as well as in resale shops, they must have scads! I can't wait to see it.50sgalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09250940806307766624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960946442922071473.post-83976546109480094182010-11-12T14:05:39.571-08:002010-11-12T14:05:39.571-08:00I have to tell you that I started reading your blo...I have to tell you that I started reading your blog in the archives a few months ago and you have inspired me so much that I have decided to take on a decade myself. The eighties were the time that I truly felt that I belonged. Family and home was more important. So I have decided that as of January 1, 2011 I will be engulfed in the year 1985. I can't wait to see what lessons I will learn and how it will change and effect my life. Thank you so much for your inspiration.<br /><br />Andrea<br />Back in the Future <br />http://backinthefuture80s.blogspot.com/Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14369991400868907879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960946442922071473.post-69908833791932871822010-11-12T03:38:36.377-08:002010-11-12T03:38:36.377-08:00I had no idea how many candies debuted in the 50s!...I had no idea how many candies debuted in the 50s!Renee of the Faehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13081022805749169331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960946442922071473.post-75979165979233679342010-11-11T16:46:26.809-08:002010-11-11T16:46:26.809-08:00I love it when you go off on a tangent; always int...I love it when you go off on a tangent; always interesting, thought-provoking and inspiring. With the subject of manners, consideration and objectifying women, you and the ladies might be interested in taking a peek at a blog written by an older gentleman, A Guy Maligned.

I read your post from last spring about how you want to take shelter and just remove yourself from the modern world--how often I feel like that.

I found a recipe online from the early 1900s that I will try. Modern ones haven't worked so far, or I am doing something wrong year after year. Looking forward to the candies!minnie22mnoreply@blogger.com
