Good Old Days - January/February 2022

In this issue

Sledding and skating! As kids, we could hardly wait for the first snowfall of the season that would turn our world into a winter wonderland and usher in a whole new playground for us! Whether we were aspiring to be an Olympic skater or building a fort, the ice and snow called us to enjoy the season in a special way.
· We all had one—a romance that began when we were young and starry-eyed. Our readers share their funny Valentine stories that remind us of innocent times long ago.
· “Company’s coming!” That phrase sparked excitement (and often a flurry of last-minute housecleaning) when it was uttered in the Good Old Days. Visits from family and friends were our tried-and-true form of low-budget entertainment on the weekends.
· Warm treats for cold days! This issue’s Good Old Days in the Kitchen selection features hearty rolls, breads and sweet treats that pair perfectly with a good book.
