And Peggy would go beyond the frost-free angle, finding a way to connect appliance performance with a deeper meaning of life. Don't you love it? We re-watched several of the Season 4 episodes to refresh ourselves before Sunday night's premiere, and it occurred to me that in 1964-65, I was dressing just like Sally Draper! I mean, EXACTLY, from the plaid school dresses right down to the white crew socks. (Only my mother sewed my plaid frocks - I don't think Betty threads many needles...)

In my '50's life, keeping the fridge door closed was a big deal. My mother preached it at home and we were taught it at school as well. "Don't stand in front of the refrigerator with the door open trying to decide what you want. Think of what you want, then open the door. Get your item quickly and close the door." Do we still teach that to the youngsters? If they don’t close those doors, they’re going to have other problems. In my ’50′s life, keeping the fridge door closed was a big deal.
