Wordless Wednesday: Out with the old… December 29, 2010 by Melodye Shore Saturday Evening Post cover art by Ben Kimberly Prins
Melodye Shore December 29, 2010 at 1:53 pm Me, too! Such entertaining glimpses into a bygone era… Do you think people born ~40 years from now will view today’s magazine covers with the same sense of amusement, wonderment and/or nostalgia?
sartorias December 29, 2010 at 2:22 pm Wow! And the perky Doris Day face on the woman as she sets about washing millions of dishes in her good sheath at three a.m. . . .
Melodye Shore December 29, 2010 at 2:43 pm Yes, indeed! And yet, she has a look of steely resolve in her eyes…as if she’s performed this dreadful routine many times before, and will again, several times hence.
rowanda380 December 29, 2010 at 2:39 pm is he going to help or just stand around with that dumb look on his face? :0)
Melodye Shore December 29, 2010 at 2:45 pm By all appearances, he seems to be plotting his next move…which no doubt involves retreating to his Man Cave, cigar and stiff drink at the ready.
lizannewrites December 30, 2010 at 2:20 am I think. . . I think the man is trying to think of a way to seduce her away from the piles of dishes, etc – with maybe a promise of helping her, later!
Melodye Shore December 30, 2010 at 2:22 am Re: I think. . . LOL, that’s what *I’m* talkin’ about! I love the way you think. 😉
Melodye Shore December 29, 2010 at 4:09 pm Me, too! If that mess were in *my* kitchen, I’d be in a full-on swoon.
boreal_owl December 29, 2010 at 4:52 pm Looks like he’s thinking, “Okay, it’ll take her at least an hour to get through those dishes. She won’t notice if I sneak out to watch tv.”
Melodye Shore December 29, 2010 at 5:47 pm LOL! When the Women’s Liberation movement took hold, I’ll bet he didn’t know what hit him!
Melodye Shore December 31, 2010 at 12:48 am LOL! Awesome. Psst: Did you notice her *striped* apron???
I love to see those old Post covers. So much fun.

Oh my, I am exhausted from LOOKING at that mess…

Exactly! The towel draped over his arm? A clever ruse.
Yikes! And see that foot of his? It’s already out the door…

Pfft! Amateur! I keep my heels ON.
LOL! Awesome.
