    It\'s Fun To Play With Hasbro!

    Oh, certainly it is fun. But the potatoes are not included in your Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head set, boys and girls. Your mommies will have to get you some at the grocery store! So let me ask you this: if…

    The Christmas Cleanser

    People have been eating a lot at Christmas dinner for a very long time, it would seem. In 1824 a book called The Oracle of Health published its version of a remedy for the overstuffed stomach, called…

    A Last-Minute Shopper, 1914

    Over on the left, this little cat  is doing her Christmas shopping back in 1914 (link takes you to bigger version at NYPL). I wonder what is in all the packages? Catnip and a nice piece of salmo…

    The Annual Christmas Pop-Up

    Yes, it does pop up once a year, doesn't it? Though perhaps not quite like this. It isn't Halloween anymore, Santa - you're not supposed to jump out from piles of things and scare people. Actually th…

    Alice B. Toklas and Liberation Through Fruitcake

    I am illustrating this with a lovely 1950s ad* for candied fruit. I don't know why, but I like this ad so much that it very nearly makes me want to go bake something with candied fruit in it. I do hav…

    The Best Tie To Wear In A Blizzard

    This here is no ordinary tie: it's a Nor-East tie! Strong enough to withstand a Nor'easter (in case you happen to out in a formal-dress-only winter storm). It is uncrushable, this tie. Probably made…
