And, you are right, it seems like your drink tasted better with "homemade" ice!! I loved the sound it made when it released the ice. Then we went to those crazy plastic ice trays that you twisted to release the ice.<br />Thanks for the party nudge!<br />RhondaBlue Creek Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01094468011062192664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2039834840181816670.post-70615928041849948912012-09-21T01:24:49.940-04:002012-09-21T01:24:49.940-04:00I do remember the whistling tea kettles, the flyin...I do remember the whistling tea kettles, the flyings toast and those metal ice cube trays! Those were so hard to get ice from, you could get a real work-out before having a refreshing iced drink! I also remember my mom defrosting the freezer by putting pots of hot water in and closing the door, to get some of the ice to soften. She also ironed sheets! One of my favorites was drying the sheets on the line outside. They always smelled SO GOOD! The mixers remind me of my mom always making wonderful treats around Christmas time. Thank you for a great little sentimental trip! I will be linking up to your party to show off my latest vintage find!

And I still have my grandmothers ice cube trays *winks*....Yes I think the cold drinks tasted better too. I also have my mothers Sunbeam mixer that's very like yours. We used our Sunbeam toaster for about 25 years then it lit on fire and could have burned the house down if we hadn't been right there! But sheesh it worked like a dream for 25 years! Newer appliances just don't last like that. How about old batter bowls? I loved those and still do. Or pyrex bowl sets with apples? I remember those in my Grandmothers kitchen and I'm still looking to complete a set of them. Anyhoo I could go on and on *winks*<br /><br />Thanks for hosting this wonderful party! It's so good to be back and joining in all the fun!
