Christmas Gift Giving

Series: Remember When | Story 11

How many of you mothers received a bottle of Evening in Paris Cologne, in that lovely blue bottle, for a Christmas gift or a fancy lace handkerchief for Christmas? Many men receive hankies for gifts also. If hubby or Daddy was an outside person his hankie was usually blue or red but if you were an inside professional, the choice would have been a white hankie.

I have seen the colored men’s hankies in stores today, but I don’t see the fancy boxed hankies. These must all be a thing of the past.

I am sure that there is a list of present-day favorites, but I have not stumbled on it yet. I must admit that if there is a list it no doubt includes those Techy items that those of us that Remember don’t know how to use.

Hang on to those memories as they are treasures.
