totally rad mix tapes

I don't like to hang onto a lot of things. My father-in-law likes to tease me about heartlessly selling one of my childhood toys for $300 on ebay. But don't you worry, I'll never chuck my super awesome 80's mix tapes.

utah thanksgiving = jell-o

My family always includes some type of jell-o salad as part of the Thanksgiving meal. If you don’t know by now, it’s a pretty popular item where I live. In fact in 2001 it became the official state snack.

To give you a glimpse of my holiday weekend … here are some retro jell-o molds. Yippee! Did I mention my mom has her own complete set of every style included in the post :)

I loved stacking these things as a kid. I would arrange them in different patterns and sort my Light Bright’s plastic colored pegs in them.
