Magic cookie bars are sold at Walmart 😁.

I have eaten cracker soup in the 70s. Lightly butteted saltines with boiling water drizzled over. Still warms my heart.

Brownies

My husband and I are Pagan and refer to the holiday as Yule. Since you also have Hanukkah and Kwanzaa that month, the term “holidays” covers all of them, making them all equal. However, if someone wishes me a Merry Christmas, it is the spirit in which it is given that’s more important than the words themselves, and we will react accordingly. December is a busy month for everyone, and no one should feel left out in the cold because of a few words. Enjoy it no matter how you celebrate the holidays in December.

Bread pudding is still wonderful.

Peach cobbler is still very popular.

My parents, grandparents, and other kinfolk during these years here in Oklahoma had gardens and livestock when times were hard and they ate what they could especially if they had a big family and I heard a lot of stories about what they had f they couldn't afford to to get anything from the stores. thanks for the memories.😋😋😋😋 🇺🇲🧀🍅🥕🧅🍞🇺🇲

"Sending a holiday card was a tradition that many people ( *exspecially within the Black community, ) eagerly anticipated each year. I find the statement in ( ) to be unfounded. Growing up my family (white on my mothers side & Portugees on my fathers side) gave great importants to the giving and Recieving of Christmas cards. It was are way of saying "You are in my thoughts" Over the years and through the web our family has saddly fazed out this tradition. I how ever sit buy and give Holiday & Birthday cards to close friends and family

The shows I grew up watching on Canadian television!

My Great Grandparents, Grandparents and now parents house has a coal room and chute. By the time my brother and I came around we used it as a wood room and chute for the wood furnace. We also have a laundry chute 😊

Very popular at my grandparents country club, Del Paso, Sacramento CA, in the 80's.

Thanks for the memories. Smiling now.

Here in Sweden I'm quite sure that when our "Post" made the stamps so expensive, people stop sending christmas card. And handmade Advent Calenders are something that I hear people do nowadays!

Im thinking the other kind of canned peaches!!😂

How about the arrival of the Christmas catalogue “wish book” in the mail?

I love traditional carols.❤

I see the words merry and bright I'm tempted to say merrybrightmass😂

Ah-hem….excuuuuse me. I STILL use special fine China for Christmas dinner. And, I still cook the traditional Christmas dinner. I refuse to call Christmas “the holidays” and I even still have a silver tree, it’s not my main tree though.

Mmmmmm GRANDMA pies

Peach apple cobbler mmmmm

How are people supposed to keep Christmas traditions alive when people like this guy are too afraid to even use the word Christmas too describe the traditions. This guy goes on and on about past traditions. Yet he doesn’t even have the courage to use the word “Christmas”. He says things like holiday decorations or going holiday shopping. It’s Christmas shopping and Christmas decorations.

I remember my late grandmother's lemon meringue pie, rice pudding, custard pie and pumpkin pie so well. I never had a decent piece of pumpkin pie since she died 25 years ago because her's was the very best in my opinion. This vid actually made me tear up a bit as I still miss her. My late mother was the one who baked chocolate chip and sugar cookies. Every Christmas we had an abundance of them and she would give out packages of them to family and friends. I know how to make all that they did, but it's never quite as good as theirs.

You did blondies twice

Merlin was fun. Does anybody remember it? It was an electronic toy with beeps and boops i played with it till i drove my parents crazy.

I still have a set of Chinese porcelain from many years ago. It was a gift from my friend's family to mine, and it still looks great today

Love that Hot Dr. P!

My family don't appreciate stuff like this. IF I had a family of my own I would have wanted my little family to be like this. I actually want a train for Christmas but in 34 and my family all say I'm to old. And silver trees are still in style

I live in a neighbourhood that does decorating contests. Definitely not gone forever by any means. They do it for Halloween as well.

13:48 Tinsel declined because people got tired of picking up pet poop strung together with silver

I still go Christmas shopping

I miss the Carol singers ❤

I'm white & irish. All of my family & friends still send cards

That fish in aspic looked like Sheba cat food.

Sole meuniere was my favorite back then! Delicious! Now I'm a vegetarian!but

You baked, baked Alaska. Especially if you lived in Michigan, because Traverse City, Michigan is the pie cherry Capital of the world. I loved baked custard rice pudding, a sprinkle of nutmeg on top. Scotcheroos notches above Marshmallow Treats

Both of my Oklahoma grandmothers were different with desserts my paternal grandmother had desserts like peach and apple cobblers with ice cream, my maternal grandmother it was sweet potato pies, chocolate gravy and carrot cakes, thanks for the delicious memories from the past thank you.😋🍪🥧🍰🧁😋

I wish they were brought back the yule log desserts

My parents home had a blade slot. When the medicine cabinet was pulled out another room was discover, ITY razor blades lying on the floor.

What a nonsensical video. Most of these traditions are still done.

🤓 17:35 Hey what happened? You couldn’t find any pictures or video about the radios?

Where are the real long running shows like The OG Hawaii 5-0, My 3 sons, Bonanza, All in the Family?

I send out at least 50 Christmas cards every year. We also string popcorn and cranberries. We put them on the trees around the yard for the birds. And we use Great Great Grandma's Spode china for Christmas dinner. I'm always amazed at how large that set of china is! There's one plate that's just a little wonky. You can only see it when the plates are stacked. It's become a tradition that whoever gets the wonky plate does the dishes! With close to 20 of us, there's a lot of dishes to hand wash. Because Grandma's china never goes in the dishwasher. 😆 I really hope the Grands, and GreatGrands to come, will continue our families traditions.

i loved making gingerbread houses and here in peru fruit cake is very popular.

Hopefully, another episode of this truly remarkable program will eventually produce a follow-up edition. And, if there is going to be a second installment of this series, then - by all means, a really great television show that deserves to be recognized in this manner would most definitely have to be The Monkees.

I still make handmade Christmas cards. I send more than 50 every year and the people who receive them really appreciate it.

It's kinda sad that we live in such an isolated society. I wish I could go back in time and revisiting those times.

Here's what i ate coming up from a child. What Was Put Before Me

you forgot to mention gas propelled cars. Back in the '80s. You had to pump liquid fuel into your car for it to go. Now, you just charge it like you charge your phone or laptop. No fumes. No hazardis liquid

Growing up, the wine steward in the food shop would spot my father in the mens department. She would quickly gather up his standard order and had samples to expand his order. Mom would take me and my brother to the short order chefs. She would negotiate out a picnic for us to enjoy on our way home. Something we did nearly once a month for years.
