Yes but mom usually stayed home and prepared meals back then.

I like going out for a meal because I enjoy time out with someone but it because a convenience thing.

Yup, moms more often than not shopped for the food and cooked the food indeed!

Maybe she got a break on Mother's Day and her birthday, but otherwise she did it 363 days a year!

She sure did. and in my house dinner better be on the table by God. True for most wives I believe.

That’s one remember when that I can live without

These days Mary and I are more often to grab something on the run or run out and get either Thai or whatever than cook...

IMHO it's not the cooking that is a pain so much as is the time it takes to shop and then the clean up mess afterwards........

I remember when the Macy's Day Thanksgiving Parade was JUST a parade and it didn't get interrupted every couple of minutes with singers and dancers.......

Kids (unless they live near Scarecrow in Seattle's University District) will never know what fun it was to peruse isles and isles of movie possibilities

I remember when the lights on the Christmas tree were a fire hazard.

They sure were pretty, though . . .

I remember when you had to wind them up at once within a 24 hour period so they'd keep running!
