I haven’t seen it since maybe the late 80s on tv. Definitely a classic.

Yes! A little slapstick but a lot of fun. I haven’t seen The Family Way but running off to check it out!

Oh geez, I forgot Summer Magic! I must edit my post above.

I am a hardcore Hayley fangirl and frequently try to force Angels and the other movies on nonplussed friends. The Parent Trap is peak Hayley, closely followed by That Darn Cat (Dean Jones!) and Summer Magic.

I am totes having spageters for din-din!

Right? I do not have cute knees. My legs are heavy and pasty, but all dresses seem to only be above the knee or maxi length (i.e. too long). I was so happy when maxi skirts came back (hike up or roll the waistband if necessary), but then I still gotta find a decent top.

Right? My mom and I call her “the smug witch,” though.

We must be sisters. Whenever I call my mom on the weekend, she’s deep into some Law & Order marathon.

The fashion collection at the V&A in London is a must-visit.

Was just coming here to say this. They got in a lot of trouble late last year when employees at their Richmond, CA facility started complaining to OSHA.

a tasteful approach

I keep the Target rip-off version in my fridge for just this purpose, but still cannot help but think of Captain Haddock whenever someone pops one open.

Scrolling down, I did not see that second photo was a finger and naturally assumed, having lived through the 70s, that sliced hot dogs were involved in some way.

Ooh, what kind of tamales?

If you are into crafts and plan to make holiday gifts for people or things to decorate your home, you have to start now, or you’ll face plant into your Christmas dinner from pulling all-nighters to finish that @#$% wood-burned football cutting board for creepy Uncle Dave.

It’s usually between $6-8 at Safeway with the club card and frequently sells out both there and at CVS. Sometimes the clerks try to trick us by putting the gross moscato in its spot but I’m onto their evil ways.
