In reply to Esther. I know we had a ton of cool toys but it's always the toys of your friends that you ended up coveting huh!! Barbie Jewelry store???

We clearly grew up at the same time. I had that exact Easy Bake and I still have that Strawberry Shortcake (my parents used to get me a new one whenever the scent faded away). But I remember the rest of the toys from my friends’ houses. I clearly remember the playroom of the girl who had that awesome Barbie Townhouse. She also had a Barbie Mc Donald’s and jewelry store. I never had anything nearly that cool. Sigh.

In reply to Dottie. They do!! The 5 and Dime at Laurel Village has some in the toy aisle. They look less cool; maybe there are only 2 parts instead of 3? I don't know. Worth looking for.

In reply to Melinda. Was it Deidre who had the Easy Bake oven, or Suann and Tobi? Regardless, Marie's dress ruled, and Fashion Plates were THE SHIT.
