The 1950's was a time when backyard grilling came into
it's prime. While this little book is not technically vintage yet ...
The recipes inside certainly are.
I started collecting these vintage trays. I have Oregon, Wyoming
and Ohio (where both of my parents were born)
Sadly, I don't have Idaho yet. But hey
Oregon is only 50 miles away!
It's hot here ...
so stay cool Daddy-O!!!
I am heading over to ~
and
Shall I add an ice cube to your water Bentley???
Love,
Susan and Bentley

That's a cool looking tray. I don't believe I've ever seen one with the states on them before.
ReplyDeleteI do not know about the book, but those colored tumblers are definitely vintage. We had some of those many moons ago.
ReplyDeletethose glasses keep things cool, but I always thought it felt like you were cutting your lip drinking out of them! the tray is too cool!
ReplyDeleteThe metal cups are on my radar because I saw them in a shop a week or two ago. So eye-catching.
ReplyDeleteI shall keep my eyes peeled for trays. You never know...
Hubby and I will now be on the look out for your Idaho tray...What a fun colleciton. I remember drinking Kool-Aid out of those glasses and how my dad loved to do his 'BBQ'.
ReplyDeleteCute trays.. I remember those tumblers! Fun post. Many blessings, marlis
ReplyDeleteI love all this vintage look!
ReplyDeleteHave never seen the stately trays before but I do remember drinking out of those metallic colored cups at my friend's house!
A great memory.

Lovin' the cool metal cups! I soooo want to start collecting the state souvenir tablecloths, I think that would be fun:@)
ReplyDeleteThe cottage that we rent has those metal cups and my girls always fight over who gets the purple one. I'm loving your collection of trays and I need to check out that cookbook!

ReplyDeleteI love those vintage trays. I collect vintage Homer Laughlin travel plates. :)

Susan, those metal glasses are a blast from my past! I think my niece has the ones that once belonged to my mom. I remember having a mini version of these for my doll house. Long ago lost I'm certain. ;-)

Now I'm quickly starting to feel a little old. "Vintage" and "90s" being used in the same sentence? Oh my. :)
ReplyDeleteCute post, Susan.

I drank out of those tumblers when I was a little girl. I remember that I was always mesmerized by the wonderful colors. The hot pink was always my favorite! Thank you for sharing your treasures. Cherry Kay
