You’ve seen souvenirs from Coca Cola, but what about Pepsi Cola? Do you remember these collectable cups?

…that famous brand…

Posted on November 25, 2019 by felicia

Yes, I’m sure you recognise this brand. No, “Clouet” is not a strange spelling for ‘chicken’….Clouet is actually the name of the founder of this brand. 🙂

Doing Laundry – Then & Now

Posted on November 18, 2019 by felicia

Some of you may remember those galvanised washtubs used for laundry (and maybe bathing the little ones too!). Does anyone still use them now? I doubt it (but I may be wrong). Maybe some of you out there still prefer hand-washed clothes… 😉

Say “NO” to plastic bags…

Posted on November 11, 2019 by felicia

Imagine carrying something like this while shopping at your local mall 😉 Quite handy though, considering many places have either stopped giving out plastic bags, or even charge you extra should you need a bag. This raffia bag comes from Madam Ko Wye Fong.

Something to jog some memories…

Posted on November 6, 2019 by felicia
