Here are a few that look pretty easy and not too outdated, but then how can food go out of style. Well, yes I know there are a few that I will never eat again, like...Velveeta, or Spam or even Moon pies, which have come back. Remember these recipes all come from circa 1950 or 60's.

It has been a long time since I could leave any comment on your blog. It didn't let me. Only happened with your blog. I could read it but not place any comments. I mention it just in case it happened to someone else.
Glad to be able to say hello again!
Hmmmm, very interesting. My sister has had that problem at times not just with my blog. It's frustrating but glad you did succeed this time.!
