I didn't plan for the recurring hat motif. It just happened. Also, that "dad" at the upper right is clearly the crusty old Doc from Murder She Wrote . Anything to pay off those medical school bills, I guess. Left side: Sunset magazine, April 1950 Center: Family Circle , September 1953 Right: Good Housekeeping . September 1957

I like getting to see the vintage packaging, but I think I'll pass on crumbling chips into my waffles and piecrust, Thanks. Front and back covers from a 34-page promotional booklet published by The Wise Potato Chip Co. of Berwick, Pennsylvania. (Originally posted to flickr on January 30th, 2011.)

I wonder if the Art Nouveau label was considered dowdy and passe' to the syrup buyers of the 1950s? I like it much better than their current one. From December's Western Family magazine.

I love the aquatic-hued table cloth. It goes so well with the sea-monster entree', doesn't it? Excerpts from a 24-pager published by the Kretschmer Corporation of Carrollton, Michigan.

This thing is forty pages long, so there's a whole lot of preaching the Gospel of the Nut going on. But the pictures sure are nice.

And think of what all those hours of quadruple sifting will do for your upper body strength, Ladies!

Clipped from the October issue of Western Family. (I like to think that ad size = priority. Home-cooked breakfasts rule, but don't forget to feed the cat. Later, we can have some cake and cider. As for the chores? Forget 'em 'til tomorrow!)

The Residents are throwing a luncheon, and you're invited! (L) Front and back covers, plus (R) first two pages of a promo published by Kraft.

"Three meals a day! We must eat to live, But what a thrill New dishes give." It's hard to beat the panache of the B.Y.O. Waffle Iron soiree', but the Uneeda Bakers do their best. From "Champion Peanut Butter Chops" (American cheese, cracker crumbs, and of course peanut butter sculpted to look like meat) to "Pears Olga" (canned pears with some cream, sugar, and shortbread crumbs dumped on top) there's nothing like that Thirties glamour! Front cover, plus center pages from a promo published by The National Biscuit Company, aka Nabisco, New York, N.Y.

Back then, a proper housewife never arranged the breakfast meat without help from a T-Square and a level. From the February issue of Better Homes & Gardens.

"...Waffles may be plain or the fancier variety suitable for dessert. For a delicious main luncheon or supper dish, try serving creamed chicken, fish, or eggs over hot waffle quarters!"

Menu: Chicken a la King Curry Buttered Waffles Broccoli Pecan-Lemon Butter Peach Snowball Can somebody go ahead and try that curried waffle thing and get back to me? I'm skeptical.

Uh, why did you dump gravy on the waffle instead of the biscuit, Ma?

Yes, each kernel represents the heart and soul of a dedicated Blue Diamond employee. So make sure you keep both varieties on hand!

Oddly enough, no sign of the Headless Horseman...From March's Family Circle magazine. Originally posted to flickr on 1/28/11.
