Easter Adverts

 

There is something in the old times, when life, in spite of problems that people have them in every era, that is so delightful to me, so inspiring and that gives me peace and the will to live.


 

Through past decades adverts we can jump in those nice times. They are so nice.
I leave you here with some.


And chocolates, we could not miss them.

It's open Season


I'm all happy and singing Rudolph the Red Nosed Raindeer.

Why is that? It's because in mylife I always begin Christmas time on the 28 of October.

I will tell you why. In October we have four birthays: first my nephew, then one of my girls, then mine and in the end, on the 27, it's my uncle's.

So, till his birthday, it's not time for Christmas - well, officially, because I don't tell anyone that in September I'm already strolling in all the shopping sites I can looking for signs of that blessed season.

Anyway, now we arrived at Christmas time !! 🎄

So, what am I doing now?


Besides singing Rudolph on top of my lungs, I will make a list of presents - that I have already some bought since September it's a thing that nobody needs to know. 😄


I will go fetch all the wrapping papers left over from last year - oh joy  - and the ribbons and tags also. 


That way I can begin wrapping the already bought presents, which is an activity that I like so much, while listening on youtube to all the Christmas songs I can find, mainly the more vintage ones.
This one is my favourite for the wrapping activity: 
It's Beginning To Look a Lot Like Christmas 


Then I will beging thinking about the food for Christmas, the Eve and the Day. 


I will make a  list of the groceries, the cod, the meat, the potatoes, cabbage and pumpkin for the soups, the flour, sugar and all the trimmings for desserts - lots of them! 😀

(no, I never made these ones but who knows?)

And I will make a list too for the non perishables and non food related, like nice Christmassy napkins and some more little decorations that I can't resist to buy every year. And I say little ones because I think I have enough decorations.

And another thing that I want to do is a good overall cleaning and I will make a list for it too.


What's more? Oh so many things to think and do. I feel like dancing.

Christmas Adds from the past

 


I do like those adverts from the past decades, mainly until the beginning of the sixties, but even more till the fifties. What glorious times.
But from those adds some I really like are the ones about Christmas.
