Vintage Things That Have Disappeared In Your Lifetime?

You know that summer really IS over when...
It's over when... ~Octoberfest is on the brain, instead of the beach. ~The hot drinks in the Trader Vic's books sound less absurd. ~The sun on your back feels good and not painful. ~The rustle of leaves on the pavement replaces the hum of insects in the grass. ~The Pendleton skirts...- Caroline

The Evening Tipple...
I have this passion fruit syrup that is just taking up space. So, I found a great recipe to use it up with. Then I forgot the recipe at work, so I just guessed & googled: Pink Zombie: This drink is flammable. Now, ala "Modern Drunkard" magazine, I am now four sheets to the wind...- Caroline

They Say Em' From the Golden Era - Slang & Memorable Phrases
I'm a big fan of using "ring-a-ding-ding" instead of "wow" or "hot" etc. I've swiped a lot of slang from film over the years. "Miller's Crossing" introduced me to the classic "take your flunky and dangle."- Caroline

What Are You Reading
Me too! Right now I'm reading a Zombie anthology, and "Winning Low Limit Hold'em" by Lee Jones, which is genius. Now I truely understand what "giving them a free card" means if nothing else. Here's hoping the Fall will spark my interests in snottier works.- Caroline

Will hemlines drop this year?
Lets hope! I for one can't wait for the demise of the mini-mumu things girls are wearing this summer. Is it a shirt? A dress? Sleepwear? I'm a knee length lady myself. I wear a lot of Pendleton skirts I couldn't get the link to work, but strangly, while doing one of my weird Google...- Caroline

Perfect Mai Tai Recipe......tikiphiles discuss
OK since we're now all out of the Trader Vic's mix (people, don't just buy one bottle like I did), I'm going to attempt this tonite. I have everything, except the only rum in the house is this semi-local stuff called Hurricane Rum from Nantucket. I guess it's aged in whiskey barrels, and the...- Caroline

Who wrote the book on motherhood?
Well I know I for one was very scared of the physical aspect of giving birth, so if this is you, I would read up on it (in books, not the web please - seems to be a hypochondriac's playground, as are the "What to Expect" books to some degree).
