I was born in the 1950s, and I really don't remember much about it. The entire universe revolved around my soggy diaper, shredded wheat breakfast, and skinned knee.

I'm so old I remember when school lunches were meals made from scratch and really something to look forward to.

In 6th grade (1957) our school built a new addition and we got our first cafeteria.

Two head cooks were hired and they were great 1

Fried chicken, mashed potatoes, meat loaf, macaroni casserole ( hot dish) salmon loaf

Everything made from scratch!

These two cooks got hired in summers to cook for weddings .

Nothing at all like today's school lunches where the words " nuggets" and " patties" seems to dominate .

I'm so old I remember my dad talking about his childhood spent in the time of the Great Depression.

I remember magazines had a short story in every issue. Occasionally it was a 2-part story but mostly complete in one issue.

My mother told me about when she learned the Charleston and rouged her knees.

I remember getting an ice cream cone for 10 cents a scoop at the soda fountain in the drug store.

I'm so old I remember playing a jukebox at a hamburger joint.

Five dollar adult admissions to Disneyland back in the 60’s. My last trip as a senior citizen recently set me back 120.00 bucks.
