When I look at your pics it just reminds me of how simple life used to be, and I often miss it. There was a lady at a yard sale a couple weekends ago, who was selling her baby carriage. It was white and looked really nice. I couldn't believe she was selling something over 40 years old for just $25! Thanks for the memories and always sharing these pics.

My two oldest sons (now 46 and 44), were choir boys and looked just as angelic as that in their robes.<br /><br />Your jokes were fun and made me smile.

That room with the dolls caught my eye. I have a doll collection but only one that is vintage. I love the vintage composite dolls as they have beautiful clothing and unique faces. Although some can be quite creepy;)<br />KateKate Yetterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12753398916038349242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-22072159835020275742017-12-15T12:32:58.829-06:002017-12-15T12:32:58.829-06:00The jokes are so silly, lol, I am definitely going...The jokes are so silly, lol, I am definitely going to share them with Helena:)<br /> I actually knew about 'bells on bob's tail ring' I think it's very cute.<br />I love these posts from the museum..they are so interesting, informative and really beautiful.<br />thank you for sharing this one Elizabeth.<br />you know, some of the games and toys remind me of the things my older brother had stashed away.<br />Happy Friday to you!<br />(ps, I'd NEVER think you were a fool! thank you for your concern:X)<br />Marfi-topiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03242999477685406949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-5028365354362425242017-12-15T09:58:51.458-06:002017-12-15T09:58:51.458-06:00Well, you did make me smile with those silly jokes...Well, you did make me smile with those silly jokes. The sort of old fashioned children's jokes.<br />Thank you for taking me to the museum again. What fun! I certainly recognise some of the board games. The one on the floor agains the wall we used to call Ludo or 'Mens Erger Je Niet'(Tr. Man, dot' get annoyed). I also played with a version of that electrical quiz. That was fun.<br />I recognise quite a few of the boys' toys too.<br />Ha, I thought of you when I saw that caroussle horse! I knew that you would love that most of all. It's a beauty.<br />That doll collection is amazing!<br />I can't wait to see the next bit. But I know I have to wait until the next year. That's OK, we're all a bit busy these days.<br />I just read your comment on Angela's blog about her scones with cheese. A scone in England is what you would call a biscuit, so to have one with cheese is not so unusual. Traditionally we have them with clotted cream and jam, but as they are not sweet, one can easily combine them with savoury items.<br />Hubby and I will flying out to Holland on Wednesday to celebrate Christmas and the New Year with my mother. I'm really looking forward to it and already have a half packed suitcase on the spare bed.<br />I wish you and Bluebeard a very happy Christmas and a healthy and safe New Year.<br />LiscaLiscahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06055538730629891703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-72451644345746993262017-12-15T08:27:44.325-06:002017-12-15T08:27:44.325-06:00Wonderful funnies today!

I had fun reading them out to hubby so he could guess the answer and he came up with a good one for: <br /><br />"What do sheep say at Christmas?" <br />Baa-humbug! <br /><br />...lol 😉. What an amazing museum, I so enjoyed seeing all the exhibits especially the beautiful carousel horse! Wishing you a Happy Friday and Weekend! J 😊<br />p.s. thanks for your lovely comments on my blog! Yes, it is a variety of suet pudding, I should have guessed that Christmas pudding was more of a English thing ...lol 😀 ... so I've now added some facts about Christmas pudding to my blog, thanks!

Ma was not sentimental about toys. That thing is probably worth a small fortune today. Hope your keyboard problems get resolved, you get all your gifts and preparations done. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Not too complicated and my brain didn't have to work too hard. :) And I like seeing the old toys. Most are a little too old for me except for the old parcheesi board. Nice to see it looked the same as the ones I remember. I don't think I ever learned to play Parcheesi though.<br />If I did I can't remember the the rules. Happy Friday.
