Oh I wish I didn't see that Bartons Chocolate in the bottom right corner. I can taste it, I hope I don't suffer consequences of virtual calories.

No more Swiss Colony for us, honey! We're movin' on up to Bloomies!

How much is that rustic barrel behind the pewter mug on the top shelf? Yeah, that one. How much? Whaddya mean, it's not real?!

My mother had the identical duck basket that is on the lowest foreground shelf in this picture. It sat on our kitchen table for years. My father gave it to her as a gift. No clue if it had been birthday present, or mothers day, or some other occasion, but it was in this same era (late fifties, early sixties). He even worked in New Jersey at the time. Unlikely that he drove all the way to Hackensack to get it, but he could have gotten it at a different Bloomingdales.
