Some of you will be too young to relate to this post.
Some things bring my mind right back
to a certain
to a certain
MOMENT IN TIME.
A while ago I spotted something in the store
that made me stop and stare.
It was THIS!
PRELL!
PRELL!
My mother washed my hair
with this for years.
with this for years.
I had to have some for old times sake!
It is probably like using
dishwashing liquid
dishwashing liquid
on your hair
but I sure do love the smell
and the memories that accompany it.
When I got to be a teenager

I declared my independence!
Yes! I! Did!

Yes'm - I was a Breck girl.
Yes- I washed my hair with BRECK
but prior to that I brushed my teeth with
IPANA.
It came in one of those

that rusted and hardened like
gun metal as you emptied it.
THAT was my mother's choice
and when I was a teenager

Yes-That is really me!
I was definitely a thorn
in my mother's side.
in my mother's side.
Seriously.
The one thing she
COULD NOT BELIEVE?
That I threw
THESE AWAY
You used THOSE with one of these beauties
Those were the most miserable
things ever- I am sure they were
invented by some man!
As soon as I saw the ad
I rushed out and bought these.

I could swim, play games
and, best of all,
I could
GO FLY A KITE
which is exactly what my mother
often told me to do!
How about you?
