I'm organizing my food pantry and my emergency Supply Closet and then I'm going to do something in the studio today. You are right about that

I'm just guessing but there are some websites that you can only interact with and download during business hours. I would try this website again during the hours it says it is open and see if it works, I hope it does

Agreed that there are some things missing here like I like the groups that I belong to on Facebook and the number of people I'm connected to there after over 15 years is hard to replicate. But I'm maintaining my profile here and slowly adding people. I dislike the limit on number of words though 😀

Original orange & purple box from late 1960s shows a family of Black dolls: a mother holding a baby and a father seated next to her in the window of the box. At the top of the box it says Wee Three, "caution: not recommended for children under 3 years of age". At the bottom lower right hand corner of the box is a sticker identifying it as being sold at Woolworths.

Now might as well be a good time for a doll moment!

This family set of mother, father, & baby dolls (Wee Three) was sold at Woolworths in the 1960s. They are slightly smaller than Barbie dolls. I haven't seen many of these survive as collectibles. A peek into children's toys from 60 years ago!
