The Vintage Twinkie
*barf* I don't think I've had a Twinkie in over 10 years, and this is a good reaffirmation why. :offtopic: I was making a vegetarian pot pie for supper the other night and because I am lazy I did not feel like going through the hassle of making my own pie crust, I used the refrigerated...- StaceFace

Weirdest Fortune Cookie Messages
My mother and I got Chinese at HyVee one afternoon, and it wasn't the fortune that made me giggle, but it was the "Learn Chinese" part on the back. The word was "bus", you know, something short and sweet--no frills. But in Chinese it was "gong gong chi che". :rolleyes:- StaceFace

Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage
Oh boy, I've had too many to count these past few days! lol I'm a volunteer at the Soda Fountain in a beautiful, Art Deco museum, so people have been asking me if I'm just playing a part, or if I always dress "this way". On my way to the ladies' room, I overheard an older lady speaking to a...- StaceFace

Tell Us What Patterns Are On Sale!
I, too, got a sewing machine for Christmas! I'm really quite intimidated to start anything, but I know it's the only way to learn! I picked up the Simplicity 4044 and 3688 (1940's repro) patterns which are waaaay to advanced to begin with, but I wanted to get them before they'd be gone forever...- StaceFace

1940s wardrobe essentials
Thanks for all of the scans, LD! I'm with exquisitebones on wanting to order something! From your experience, how difficult would it be to sew something, like one of those suits, just by taking body measurements and going off of a picture?- StaceFace
