It was $1.95 per person; children $1.
Does anyone here even make homemade noodles? Back in my fat days, I was

I think I would like to try to make some homemade noodles. I’m thinking there’s probably an attachment for the KitchenAid mixer for that right?

Yes, works fairly well. My wife made them a few times. They are better than the boxed dried stuff in the store, but if you can buy fresh ones,
saves a lot of work.

BTW, adjusted for inflation, that $1.95 1962 Holiday Inn chicken dinner
would be about $22.00 in 2025 dollars...
Chicken is far cheaper today than 60 or so years ago, a fried chicken
dinner was considered just about on the same level then as a steak
dinner... now chicken is fast food fodder...
Believe it or not, in the early - mid 60's, Holiday Inn restos were considered somewhat "upscale", we'd go to the new HI in Galesburg IL for
a special after - church Sunday dinner... the new Interstate highway (I
- 74) was also being built, after that snazzy chicken dinner, we'd drive
a few miles on the snazzy new Interstate... so modern...!!!
My mom made homemade noodles all the time, all women of that era did...
I've not made noodles for over 40 years...

I wonder if the chicken then was way tastier than chicken now. Chicken
today is bland and boring. I avoid it if I can.
My grandmother and I just used a wooden spoon to stir the eggs
and flour together. Then rolled them out with a rolling pin
and cut them with a butter knife.
I wonder if the chicken then was way tastier than chicken now. Chicken

Yes, I'd say it's blander - "industrial" farming and all that...
When I was a kid on the farm, we had a hen house, and that supplied our chicken and eggs... most all farm folks had raised chickens...
Mom would grab a chicken and go CHOP CHOP, off with it's head...!!!
We moved off of the farm in 1960, and bought chicken from the store or sometimes others who still raised chickens...
By about 1963 or so, almost nobody in our rural araa even on farms
raised chickens, it was cheaper and more convenient to buy from a
store...
Raising chickens is a messy and expensive and dirty PAIN in the
arse...!!!

When I say "younger people" I mean people younger than me. When I say
"my kids" I mean my two sons and daughter. I'll always call them "my
kids." A lot of younger people stream music these days. My kids
certainly do. I like their music. It's stuff that's new to me and it's
not pop.

Young people don't really commute to work. They flip burgers at the
local McDonalds or McAloha.
Don't forget the ones who prance in front of their phone's camera
in an attempt to become an "influencer".

Because they're retired. Kids are under 20. That leaves people from 21
to 65 as potential commuters.
When I say "younger people" I mean people younger than me. When I say
"my kids" I mean my two sons and daughter. I'll always call them "my
kids." A lot of younger people stream music these days. My kids
certainly do. I like their music. It's stuff that's new to me and it's
not pop.
I don't always see the big deal in stuff that's popular with young
people. Taylor Swift, for instance, sounds very middle of the road to
me. Girlie music. Of course, I'm not the target audience. I often do
like more alternative new stuff. Australian Triple J station can be
good if the DJ doesn't think they're more important than the music.

know how to do anything try to become "influencers". Give them a camera
and social media accounts and for some reason some people send them
money. The smart ones do get paid to endorse ("influence") other people
to buy specific products, but not everyone with a phone can make a
living doing that.

You're not supposed to see what's the big deal with the younger
generation. You were raised on radio and TV. They were raised on the >internet, video games, and social media. It'll be the millennials
complaining about the younger generation after the boomers. Every
generation gots to complain about the next generation's music. And the
beat goes on.

I'm not complaining about the younger generation. When I was young,
crap music was also popular. And there's always good music too, just
not in the charts, generally speaking.

I bet Lady Gaga's old news already. In 3 days she'll be 39. She's a

I'm glad you're not complaining. Old geezers complaining about the
younger generation is lame.
That's why I only complain about the
boomers. Your estimation of Lady Gaga is not quite accurate.
