Spooky!

Wooooo-ooooooooo!

These are some terrifying fried pork chops, aren't they?

I love this ad, which I've seen before (I think in Life) and rediscovered in a June 1954 American Home given to me by my friend Denise who knows me too well. The ad goes on to reassure those who fear fried foods that, with Crisco, you can eat fried foods seven days a week and not worry about your digestion!

Your weight, blood pressure, cholesterol, and renal function, however, would still scare the shit out of you.

Wazzup, Blogger?

Blogger can't seem to upload images today.

They say they are "aware of the problem" though, which is an inexpressible comfort.

Masonite and you

This May 1952 edition of American Home is chock-full of ideas to make a house into your dream home.

Here, the manufacturers of Masonite invite you to customize your kitchen by adding your very own petting zoo.

And if you don't have any goats, you can just shove the kids in there on a rainy afternoon.

Blogger must be pro-rubber-scraper

Or I just posted too many images in one entry. Blogger is breaking up the preceding post, apparently in an attempt to make me post fewer images next time. Blogger is free.
