Collaging has shown me that I am a bad gluer. This pains me more than it should.
On gluing, how many of you recognize this?
Asking if you remember is edging us into "Do you remember mimeographs" and "Do you remember paper drinking straws" territory.
Milk breaks in kindergarten, people. Three cents for a half-pint of milk, and graham crackers were free, I guess? The milk was 3 cents --- that I remember vividly.
Elementary school lunches, by the way, were 35 cents. Daddy would leave a quarter and a dime out for me every night.
While I'm old personing --- how is every pair of scissors in this house dull? Every. Pair.
And where are my glasses?

Milk was 5 cents when I was in kindergarten and we had a little poster board bracelet/chain purse thingee that buckled to our wrists. We didn't have a lunchroom with bought lunches. We all went home for lunch.
I remember the glue bottle, don't really remember the smell. Now paste -----I remember that stuff. It was a mess and I hated the smell. The kid in the chair next to mine used to eat it. UGH!
I swear scissors are made to cut three times and then they go dull. I have probably ten pairs (!!!) in my craft room and arguably all are dull.
It has been said they can be sharpened by cutting through sandpaper, although let me google that and i'll report back.
