Be sure to look through the Potpourri section labelled "Start from the Beginning" in the lower right, but you can't go wrong starting anywhere on the page. Many of the pictures are perhaps from an earlier period than the 1960-70s, but your friends probably won't remember that time perfectly either--I know I don't and I was there!

I mean, there's 60s-70s "elegant" steakhouse, Lutheran Church Basement Supper, the 'easy entertaining' mentioned above, the "bachelor entertaining" (I've got a wonderful primer for the guy trying to impress a date called "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing"), etc etc etc....

that's pretty good,thanks for your sharing
