So, remember me?

No, not really?  That's okay, I forget faces sometimes too.  Let me jog your memory:  I'm a friend of yours who you haven't seen in a long time, and who loves the thrift store, has a thing for grandmas, and drives a Pinto.  Still no?

Maybe we don't know each other after all.

But if I make you toast in my new toaster (GE T77!) will you be my friend?

I know, no pics of the real thing?  Look, it has been SOOOO long since I wrote anything down, I just wanted to do it, camera battey be-damned.  I found this awesome vintage add and more info than I could ever need about my toaster on this page from jitterbuzz.com, one of the best websites I have been stuck on for a LONG time!

I made toast for Genesee this morning... golden perfection.  I know, it's a great toaster, huh?  I originally captured it (in the wild) for addition to the Post-War Kitchen Collection I have been assembling... but it is just so, ... so, NICE, and tame and Bakelite.  And shiny shiny chrome.

Aha!  You DO know me.  I knew you'd remember if I just started talking about something odd.
