They say you learn something new every day -- here's mine. Duncan Hines was a traveling salesman whose restaurant recommendations were so trusted that his name became a food brand.

And the first Duncan Hines product was ice cream! 🤯

@TheBAP4You I love coming across Picturegoer magazines -- I only discovered them in the last year!

This framed original 1933 movie magazine cover is proof that some vintage ephemera deserves wall space.

Coming soon to the Hideaway. . .

It's National Name Your Poison Day -- the perfect time to share this vintage Benson & Hedges cocktail booklet, now available in my Etsy shop: https://t.co/52JdtOC9VO

Do you have a favorite classic cocktail? (I'm partial to martinis, myself.) 🍸

I just love classic movie magazines. This one wasn't in great shape, but the cover portrait of Lona Andre is like a work of art.

Do you ever buy vintage items just for the memories? This vintage Zenith radio was just like the one my mom had in her bedroom when I was growing up. I couldn't get it in my cart fast enough -- I didn't even care if it worked.

A sneak peek at a few recent treasures headed to the Timeless Hideaway soon. One of my favorite parts of vintage hunting is discovering the unexpected. 🥰

Found this cool vintage pitcher in my mom’s basement. (She turns 98 tomorrow, btw!!) ❤️ I use it to hold cotton balls in my powder room -- it’s such a simple way to add a little personality to the space.

How do you repurpose vintage finds?

On this date in 1849, Abraham Lincoln was granted a patent for a lift boat invention. He's still the only U.S. president to hold a patent.

Celebrating this bit of trivia by sharing a 1952 Lincoln biography from my Etsy shop. https://t.co/SXkTbWRUzE

Found this vintage recipe in an old cookbook -- New England Squares, made with sweetened condensed milk and mincemeat. (Yum?)

Did you know . . . Fiesta dinnerware was officially introduced in January 1936 by the Homer Laughlin China Company at the Pittsburgh China & Glass Show.

Bacall to Arms (1946) parodied Lauren Bacall and Humphrey Bogart at the peak of their fame, with nearly every character designed as a caricature of real Hollywood celebrities from the era.
