It Was the Sixties

Below is our brand new dining room set in our apartment at 13760 Sherman Way. The year is 1964. This set went well with our aluminum Christmas tree and the bright orange plastic dishes and cups.The name of the bird in the cage is "Kookie". Named after the character from the TV show "77 Sunset Strip". Kookie used to wait in between the venetian blinds for me to come home from school. Kookie also like Vodka and orange juice. When my parents had friends over and they had drinks you had to share it with the bird. If you tried to shoo the bird away he would bite you. Yeah that's pudgy me and Mom.
