I have that song on my iTunes! I don't remember when I discovered it, but she did a couple of songs with Lee Hazlewood that are pretty great. (And he had solo songs that were great too.)
Steve Reed; I had forgotten this until it popped while I was browsing youtube at midnight because I couldn't sleep. I'll have to add it to my playlists.
Dora; I don't think any of my family liked her, but that might be because there wasn't much of her music on our radios back then. I don't remember where I first heard this, but I liked it then and still like it now.
This article in yesterday's paper caught my eye. Looks like mould to me. But. Forget the sensational headline for a minute and focus on the can. Notice how it's a little blackened around the bottom rim? I'm not sure it shows, but it looks like the can has been standing in wet conditions, the wrapper looks a little wrinkled too at top and bottom. Was it like this when it was bought? If yes, why buy it? If no, then how was it stored in the home environment? Use by date. Usually irrelevant, unless the can has been opened. We all know that once a can is opened the contents need to be used immediately, especially baby foods. She mentions somewhere in the story that the contents appeared "a bit runny". This happens when food is given to the baby directly from the can, (or jar) with saliva from the baby's mouth being transferred to the contents, which then begins to break down the molecular structure of the canned food.

Long ago, Kim of Frog Ponds Rock, (who no longer blogs), dreamed up a meme called Sunday Selections. A place where those who were willing could put up photos they wanted to share, new, old, good, bad or indifferent, any photos you please. Nothing rude or vulgar though. And we don't mind at all if other bloggers care to join us. In memory of Elephant's Child, the meme is now continued by myself and a few others. Andrew is one. Messymimi is another. Drop in to their blogs and have a look. Wisewebwoman has also been joining us occasionally. Starting this week with a "wish" who remembers cupping one of these in the palm of your hand, making a wish and then blowing it away? If it flew up and away your wish was supposed to come true. I dug around in the pot where I had planted pieces of a sprouting potato and came up with these tiny morsels, the coffee mug is for size reference. Did I already show this recently? I bought a couple of "Heirloom" tomatoes fo...
Welcome to 2026! I hope this is a good year for everyone, hopefully even better than last year. Try not to fall over folks, it's not fun. 🌞🎈🎉 Coming to you from sunny Australia, that big lump of land under the equator. Sunday Selections will be continuing, hosted by me , participation is optional, if you can't manage every week for any reason, that's okay. Words for Wednesday will also be continuing, hosted by me , and again, participation is optional, play when you can, take a break when you need to. Charlotte will be providing a colour for each month as she did last year, we try to use the colour somewhere in our posts, either photographing something with that colour or using it in another way. This month's colour is Carmine: Isn't that just gorgeous? And why is my text in two different sizes?

DeleteOh yes!
ReplyDeleteJenn Jilks; it's great isn't it!
DeleteIn 1967 I would have been in college but this didn't ring any bells for me.
ReplyDeleteMike; that's a shame, it should be in everyone's memory.
DeleteNot me.
ReplyDeleteElephant's Child; I remember you haven't listened to much music over the years.
DeleteLee Hazelwood's voice was sublime. I remember the music totally and many of the words as well.
ReplyDeletehels; it is a great voice and I remember all the words too.
DeleteYes, I can remember the song and I quite like it.
ReplyDeleteAndrew; I didn't think this would have crossed your path, but I'm glad it did and that you remember it.
DeleteI had Uncle who was fan of Nancy Sinatra.
ReplyDeleteDora; I don't think any of my family liked her, but that might be because there wasn't much of her music on our radios back then. I don't remember where I first heard this, but I liked it then and still like it now.

ReplyDeleteMargaret D; it's a good one isn't it?
DeleteNo, I don't remember this.

ReplyDeleteIris; she was, I don't know what she looks like now, this was from the 60s.
