An introductory statement of choices and a lovely Retro pic

For those of you who enjoy Retro, I have a page on Retro on Pinterest: Retro Home. I am introducing this photograph and will start blogging soon. For those who enjoy avocado green appliances of the 1970s or simply enjoy having green in the kitchen, this is a lovely pin. We used to have greater choices in kitchen appliances. Now, mostly is steel which is ideal, and much costly, white, ivory/cream, black ... I recall when there was green, yellow, and other colors to select for both kitchens and bathrooms. Now neutrals rule and it does not make all of us Retro 'worshipers' very happy. Our next post will introduce thrift, budgets, and style in all that we do and purchase. Thrift does not always mean that an item is 'falling apart' or that we must settle for second best in product or food quality. There are options, and one option is to purchase produce that is in season. We shall explore the alternatives. I did not want to spend money on a Louis Vuitton handbag. I purchased a very good handbag, an Italian bag and for such an affordable price that I do not miss not having a French bag. We always make choices and consider alternatives. This is not an economy for overspending and for giving into our wants. Enjoy the kitchen if you like Retro and if you do not like the photo, save it or pass it along, there are many out there who enjoy avocado green in the kitchen and/or this vintage look.
