I also remember when Mom and me went to the grocery store and purchased milk. Surprise! No cream on top. Father knew many ice box and refrigerator sayings. Sometimes he was New York Irish speaking and would say: “Kids, this don’t cut no ice with me.” Another Irish New York saying was: “Kids, people in Hades want ice water too.” Daddy eventually owned his own air conditioning, refrigeration, and heating company. He was somewhat of a gadget guy. We had the first television in our neighborhood, a Muntz. In the olden days: Five of the dozen homes on our street were owned by our relatives.

Dad provided us well. He also got the first air conditioning unit in our area. I new Dr. Carrier’s air conditioning invention story long before he was received into the Hall of Fame. Living good. Yes those were the good old days when there was no fighting every one knew there Neighbors and help out when they can if a family was sick the neighbor would take care of that family until they got better wish it was that way today.

Our milk man would look at me to see if it was OK to leave chololate milk, if I shook my head no he would tell my son the chocolate cow dies and he couldn’t bring chocolate milk again until they found another one. I tell my son this every time he has chocolate milk, he is now in his fifties. Our milk in 1952 was delivered by milkman and horse towing his cart. And milk was poured into saucepan left on front door step. As a young school tot I was given a lift sometimes on the cart for a while. Such fun.

I do! Our Meadow Gold milkman came twice a week, dressed in white, through our unlocked back door, with milk (butter and eggs as well if needed). I was about three or so, and I would kiss him. His truck had big blocks of ice to keep the milk cold. We had a little insulated box to put the milk in. Also we got colored aluminum glasses that cottage cheese came in as a promotion. We had to let them know of any changes in the order or if we would not be home. in the 1940’s the milkman delivered glass bottles of milk By his horse Fred pulling the milkwagon.

We couldn’t afford to have it delivered to our house , Harry Potter Signpost Shirt Butch Bieler was the milk man, he let us get a piece of ice. Adore milk, came to our back door with milk. Nobody locked doors, it was OK for him to yell Adore, and put the milk into the refrigerator, next to the back door. Early 60’s Dad always had business suits and white shirts, the dry cleaner did the same thing at front door, took cloths to dry clean, hung his suits in a vestibule closet next to front door.Just yelled drycleaner at the door. Boy are things different, we never locked the door, left it wide open if we went to the store, people even left keys in the ignition.
