It was known as the "Mother Special" or sometimes "for summer the shorter the better". Sometimes it was a repair job after you were the customer/victim when some of the neighborhood girls played "Beauty Parlor". Lots of us girls sported that haircut!

We never got sugar cereals, only Cheerios and then Rice Crispies as a special treat. I ate a LOT of Kap'n Krunch when I moved out on my own. I had that haircut that year too…

Her Froot Loops (and Sugar Smacks) would not taste nearly as sweet without the fine cow juice brought to her by Longwood Farm Dairy (see carton on table). Longwoog delivered fine lactose-chocked products to the citizens of Olathe until the 80's.

Advertising ruled in the 50's & 60's, imagine cereal being fun! That was new. BYW we enjoyed your sparkley pink suited presence @ the Doo Dah today. Spectacular!
