What do you miss?

i had a baby blue 1972 toyota FJ40 I bought from a neighbor. sold it...omg

Redfish Lake before condofornication

4% unemployment
Mr. Rogers
Tender Vittles
my daughter wishing for a $20 Barbie instead of an $800 laptop

Movie theaters where the only noise you heard came from the screen not the audience.

Street noise that was only cars and trains and buses, not the racket some call music.

I guess I miss the quiet.

I really need to go to the Mountains.

Whip 'n Chill - kind of like chocolate mousse. We always made it and ate it while we watched Bonanza - YUM!

eating at a table with my family......
eating HOT breakfast every morning and not just a bowl of cereal before school.....
sunday brunch
maw maw's sour cream pound cake.....
thanksgiving family reunions(with everybody there)

Well, hmmmmmmmm....I never see it. I must go on a quest. Love the stuff.

Being really and truly carefree, even for a little while.
My '68 Mustang convertible, even the clunky 8-track tape player.
Being taller than my baby boy.
Singing rounds while driving to Gatlinburg in the station wagon for summer vacation, circa 1970's.
My mom and dad. I really miss my mom and dad.
And fireflies.

DD and Lynnie, I miss talking to you these last 2 weeks. It has been soo crazy, I haven't had time for much of anything except fixing the bathroom, getting ready for the wedding and the wedding. Things are now finally starting to settle down. And then I cleaned out my cookies in the laptop and could not get on the site for 3 days. Go figure!!

Well, we've missed you too, Kish. We better get you back to posting! Christmas is just around the corner!

Thanks, MC!!

Clairol True-to-Light mirrors. Mine is so old that it's embarrassing, even though it functions well.

I miss Coco's Mexican Restaurant!!! terribly!!!

I was just talking about those the other day. I wondered if they still made them. I need one in the worst way since I can no longer see to put on make-up or pluck eyebrows or chin hairs.

Me too, those big ol' pucking margaritas, girl lunches, that's where I met DD for the first time. Good times at Coco's, food...well I miss the big pucking margaritas and the good times!

I searched and found these discussed back in 2/2009. Mine is now almost 32 years old. When it goes, I guess I'll just grow a beard because I can't see chin hairs in any other mirror.

I so miss all that.... plus I just miss having a really casual mexican restaurant nearby. one that is very comfortable to hang out in, munch on salsa and cheese dip, BA margaritas, and visit with friends on a regular basis. at a reasonable price.

Us too. It's surprising that there's not one like that in SoWal -- you know, with entrees under $10.

I think we have pizza covered. ;-)

Vermont Country Store carries the LemonUp shampoo - I ordered my Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific there.

Thanks! I will have to get a bottle for the memory!

My sister.

sweet.....

I miss not having the constant interruption/noise of cell phones and apps - especially at the table.

And cool old cars.

Everyone in my family (sons.dil,sister etc) except me have blackberries,iphones and all they do is look at them, no matter where we are (cept in church) it sorta bothers me.
I was sorta watching people at the high school game the other night, at least 1 out of every 2 people that walked past my seat was looking down at the phone in their hand. that just ain't right...what about the game or at the least other live people you are with??

Remember it like it was yesterday! I was so honored that a SoWal icon would hang around to meet me. It was love at first sight.

And then, you'll know my frustration, BR.

Let's see:

Product: Revlon Herbal makeup remover in the off white metal jar. It was green, gooey and the best stuff evah.

Person: My mama.

Food: Lemon Coolers. I can't search for them because I will eat a whole box in one sitting.


Good one DD!

the big "mountain" sand dunes we used to have in South Walton. Spent some time at Topsail this weekend and felt sad remembering and telling my son and grandchildren how it used to be.

Whip 'n Chill - kind of like chocolate mousse. We always made it and ate it while we watched Bonanza - YUM!

I was gonna say that stuff but couldn't remember the name of it. I have been trying to think of that name for seriously 20 years. Well, I quit thinking about it sometimes. It also came in vanilla. I do miss it.

I miss having kids at home or anyone at home. : (
The Store at Grayton Beach.
Juke Box where you could play 3 songs for a quarter.
Real home grown tomatoes on the side of the road. REAL! Like your neighbors!
Mama's meat loaf, fried shrimp, cream chicken on toast, roast beef, mashed potatoes, gravy and lady finger peas.............................

Cheese waffles. They were so salty and crisp! Lemon-Up shampoo..that smell was the best!!

I loved Lemonup shampoo!

Nabisco's Brown Edge Wafer cookies. I have found a few recipes that claim they are exactly the same. We will see.

I used to love this shampoo too

My sister.

miss you too...but like a bad penny, I'll be back

Real home grown tomatoes on the side of the road. REAL! Like your neighbors!

And peaches and blackberries. We always stopped at those places. Daddy would make blackberry preserves. Yum!

I miss Daddy.

I miss the way the corner of 30A and 395 used to look.

I miss running (ruined my knees).

I miss being able to talk on the phone with my Mom (she has Alzheimer's and can only rarely carry on a conversation).

And in a totally different category, as of yesterday I miss the Laura Mercier eyeliner pencil that didn't have to be sharpened (it just twisted like a mechanical pencil). I needed a new one, and the woman at the Laura Mercier told me that they no longer make it.

Miss my Dad(ten years this Sunday) and having my Mom whole. I understand your pain, BR. Alzheimer's is a really crappy disease and watching someone you love fade away is so challenging.

I also miss the old SoWal site....sorry Kurt. I love simple things. The new one is spiffy
