I KNOW! One of these days, I’ll make it out to the coast. Home repairs keep eating my travelin’ funds.

LOL….brocade drapes and a stool hahaha. Where did you grow up again? I know you’re out my way, right? (or my family’s way….Michigan)
Yes I remember hearing that about tinsel. We never had a cat, just a dog so it wasn’t an issue (although many years later a roommate’s cat ate the silver metallic tassels hanging off my bike handles and THAT was a gross litter box delite).

when we gonna get you out our way???

And wow…do you ever look like your Mom! Tinsel was soooo 70’s. I think it topped out in popularity then after centuries of love. Wow, we need to get people to love tinsel again! Though, many a cat has wracked up a vet bill because of tinsel. Hmm…I ramble. Tinsel used to be made out of actual lead and that kind was outlawed when we were wee ones. It’s interesting that you mentioned about your parents’ house not having much furniture. I’ve noticed the same thing about my parents’ house in retrospect. At one time, the front living room had a ping-pong table and brocade drapes. And maybe a stool. : )

Especially because it looks like we’re around the same age. We’re not German but we always had tinsel too in those days, I think I remember it being pretty common. And the Jackson 5 album! So cool! We’re spending Christmas Eve/Day with my in-laws and then on Dec. 26 we’ll fly to see my family.
