I know the coconut oil worked well on my cuticles when I had it.<br /><br />Judy, I think I will get them. I won't just now since I'm working on the yard and that's the most important thing to me but I will when I'm not tying up my funds there. Picking and choosing my places to spend is the only drawback to a budget, lol. I like PW recipes because they are things I'm likely to have on hand already, too.<br /><br />Debby in KS GrandMama had the gray set, Granny had a sort of turquoise green in the chrome and color set. I saw a dreamy cute set at the local flea market that was less chunky and very feminine looking in a solid gray and chrome that I am still kicking myself over not buying. Canisters in my family tended to be those WestBend copper with white lids. I prefer the flowery sort, such as my antique set. And the step stool you mention with a seat on top are by Cosco. They still sell them and the chrome dining sets. Pricey but still vintage-y cute. I've found two of the Cosco stepstools at flea market thrift stores in various conditions.terricheneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06865436021565986224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6959918163454225829.post-61564665331041760542017-04-19T15:06:44.920-04:002017-04-19T15:06:44.920-04:00Ooh, those canisters are dreamy!!

My Grandma's kitchen colors were turquoise and red. Her old Pyrex stuff is a boy/girl in turquoise, her dishes were gold & turquoise, and their old chrome kitchen table set was red & chrome. I would LOVE to have all those pieces now. Even that high chair/stool where the seat goes up and it has pull out steps....I can't even could how many times I pinched my fingers in that thing!!<br /><br />Debby in KSAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6959918163454225829.post-38215972618152841292017-04-18T21:19:03.630-04:002017-04-18T21:19:03.630-04:00I appreciate the recommendation on the Phytoplex. ...I appreciate the recommendation on the Phytoplex.

While it is pricey, it is so creamy and rich I am satisfied with far less than regular ic cream. And it feels like a decadent treat!
