      I'm thrilled you get my humor! lol..im a goof! I think I was more nervous to make these items because they were for someone else, when it's just for me, it's easier, cause if I mess up, I'm like..whatever. But I really wanted her to love them and so I was so happy that she did!

    I remember our tv was actual furniture, not a tv on top of a tv stand. Maybe left over from the 70’s? We had Atari, I remember playing frogger, Pac-Man and Pitfall. We didn’t play it that much, only on rainy days. We were riding bikes, playing outside. I don’t remember microwaving tv dinners. We put ours in the oven. The 80’s was the best!

      For a while I had a tv that was more like a piece of furniture too! it was HUGE!!! My friend let me borrow it when I got my first apartment until I could afford my own..it was back breaking to move! It's true most of my childhood was spent outside going on adventures with the rest of the kids on the street. It was a great time!

      They called them a console tv. We had one in every room in the house. My mom was pissed when they finally died (one by one) and had to be replaced with a flat panel tv. She would watch tv with the aspect ratio that made those two black lines on the side for the longest time.😂🎶memories!

      Awe thank you! It's funny cause now a tv dinner feels like a last minute, quick option, and your left feeling like "meh" but back then I used to get so excited when my mom would make us tv dinners, it felt like a treat! lol

  • @Siennaflower
    @Siennaflower 5 месяцев назад +3

    So creative!!! I solved the rubik's cube in 1983 while I was sitting around in my ninth month waiting for my third baby to be born, because I was too big to do anything else! Also, I noticed you were talking about microwaving a TV dinner while you had a dinner in tinfoil on screen. Before microwaving, we had to cook them in the oven! (They got more evenly cooked, but they took a long time!) 😂 ❤

    • @WhitneyLaBrie
      @WhitneyLaBrie  5 месяцев назад +2

      yes that is very true about the tv dinner, the earliest I can remember was the oven ones with the foil, and my mom would make them on occasion and for some reason it felt like a real treat! lol
      My grandpa is the one who bought us our first microwave (it was huge) and almost NO food came with microwave instructions and I remember burning a pot pie in the oven as a kid and turned it into a burnt looking hockey puck! lol, my mom was so mad!

    You never disappoint!! OMG - I can't believe the nostalgia I am feeling right now. How many of those TV dinners did I eat as a teen?????!!! And before you even said which one you were making, I said out loud "Salisbury steak!" It must have been the most popular one. It kind of turns my stomach even thinking about it (I would never put anything like that in my body any more, but I LIVED on those!!!). Thanks for the trip down memory lane! I think your half scale came out FANTASTIC. My favorite thing is your TV set - it is perfect! Will check out Lesley's channel. 💜 Kat

    • @WhitneyLaBrie

  • @thedollcupboard
    @thedollcupboard 5 месяцев назад

    No scale is too daunting for you. As usual you completely nailed the challenge before you! For me : childhood in the 70s and ALL my teen years in the 80s. I had a red bean bag chair I LIVED in. My TV dinner was the fried chicken with apple pie, made in a real oven and it took f o r e v e r to cook. And yes my tongue and the roof of my mouth - seared to a crisp. Rubik's cube? I couldn't be bothered! 😂🤣😍✨

    • @WhitneyLaBrie
      @WhitneyLaBrie  5 месяцев назад

      80's teens, oh how I wanted to be one!!! I remember so fondly looking up to my teen babysitter with her big hair and cool make up. She smelled like electric youth and aqua net! She had Duran Duran poster on her wall and she used to tell me that her boyfriend was the lead singer (and I believed her! lol) I was a teen in the 90's so my life was all about grunge music, flannel shirts, CK One and dock martins.
