Ingram's Milk Weed Cream, 1950's
- Why is it that wrinkles are considered
- Regal and distinguished when a man
- Is aging?
- Not so with us poor girls!
- Krinkle in your forehead?
- Lines around your eyes?
- Each one
- Says "Old"!
Although, if I must have wrinkles,
I'd much rather have laugh lines than scowl lines!
And before anyone says anything.....
Yes, I spelled crinkle with a 'K'.
I was eating a Krispie Kreme while typing and thought
It was completely appropriate! LOL!

ReplyDeleteToo funny, and too true! I also just read a post about a new prodcut by Joan Rivers called "The Right to Bare Legs". It's foundation! For your legs! Ugh!
ReplyDeleteJulie ~ haha...you are too Kute! :)
ReplyDeleteThis is very KLEVER! Love that picture.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute little Lady with her dress of cream. Reminds me those doll birthday cakes.
ReplyDeleteyes, very klever!!
ReplyDeleteif only i could keep the number of wrinkles at the level they are now, but i know each year will bring more...but they are badges to LIVING life and why worry as worry will just bring on more wrinkles any ol' way!!
I always found the wrinkled, old faces of my great aunts beautiful. As I age I try to remember that... It's not working.
ReplyDeleteHa Ha Ha Betsy ~~ That is so true...would you mind handing me a Krispy Kream?
ReplyDeleteWanda ~ maybe if we keep eating doughnuts our faces will fill out the wrinkles! ha.
ReplyDeleteDawn ~ leg makeup? That sounds...really gross! ha.
ReplyDeleteSame with gray hair for men, you know?
ReplyDeleteMmmm, Krispie Kreme. I haven't had those in a while. Now I'm having a craving and it's too late to go get them, although they would probably hot right now. They are too far away though for this time of night....
Gewrinclod creame!
ReplyDeleteGreat post and I so agree with everything.;) You are so good with these plays on words.;)
ReplyDeleteBtw, I love your new header picture, gorgeous.
xoxo
Yes, definitely Kool, that one :-)
ReplyDeleteYou'll find mine here.
Your verse is great but I find men tend to ignore the wrinkles and wonder why they can not fit into a size 30 anything, anymore. Big boned with wrinkles is a sight to see, I quit looking in the mirror at my dad's face a long time ago.
ReplyDeleteActually getting wrinkles is really a cool thing to get, because getting wrinkles means that you are still alive. I will take getting wrinkles any day instead of not getting them.
ReplyDeleteWrinkles just mean that someone has lived a life and I see some actors and actresses that get face lifts who just look terrible and then you see some who do not get a face lift and they just look real and alive. Yup, getting wrinkles just means that you are still alive and full of life.
Only when women change their view of wrinkles on other women, will men change their view of wrinkles on women.
God bless wrinkles.
When I was at the gym yesteday I watched a TV morning show discussing Kylie Minogue's endorsement of Ponds Cold Cream - you probably don't have it but its been around since Eve was a girl and is cheap. Kylie claims it is due to Ponds cold cream that she has such a great complexion...which is a blatant lie as the poor woman has a face full of botox and collagen. But the silly thing is that the sales of Ponds cream has soared since her claim...how gullible are people and how concerned are they about their wrinkles...
ReplyDeleteI see wrinkles as marks of time and maturity to be worn with pride.
Happy days
see thats not even fair...you drop the fact you are eating krispy kreme doughnuts and dont even offer us one...lol. i dunno, wrinkles are not bad on the ladies either...
ReplyDeleteLD ~ your dad's face in the mirror..oh my, isn't that the truth!
ReplyDeleteKayren ~ the gray hair...yes, that's even more so than the wrinkles! ...and usually comes sooner!
ReplyDeleteBrian ~ sorry...blame Wanda...she ate the last one! ha.
ReplyDeleteOh My Goodness.......
ReplyDeleteWrinkles....don't even want to go there/ha
I dunno... I see wrinkles on a waman's face and I don't think "old", I think - fellow traveler.
ReplyDeleteThat is a cute wrinkle cream jar! It would look good sitting on the vanity.
ReplyDeleteI agree, laugh lines are better than scowl lines. Some people look like they're in a permanent bad mood : )
Wrinkles worn with beauty and grace beats scalped any day.
ReplyDeleteI think that is a lovely jar too. So delicate and refined...just like you Bets!
ReplyDeleteHappy TT!
A sentiment to live by: appreciate your laugh lines! I know I do.
ReplyDeleteAnd yum...hot Krispie Kremes right off that conveyor belt!
Your post was so creative. I love it. And I agree, it isn't fair. Gray haired men are called "distinguished," gray-haired women? Not so much.
ReplyDeleteI Love that cute jar...Yes, definitely better to have laugh lines than frown lines:)
ReplyDeleteHope you and your 5 men have a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend!
Even I wouldn't dare to korrect your spelling, had it been an akcident rather than an artistik affektation!
ReplyDeleteMr. Fox ~ Kan I kongratulate you? Your humor is unkanny!
ReplyDeleteOf kourse you kan, kutie!
ReplyDelete''I was eating a Krispie Kreme while typing ''
ReplyDelete- mm, that justifies anything
;-)
Nancy ~ the Krispy Kreme disclaimer! I think I'll continue using it! haha
ReplyDeleteWell from the photo I see on your sidebar...you don't have a thing to worry about! I don't see any wrinkles!
ReplyDeleteMaggie ~ oh, they are starting though...right around my eyes. Hopefully because I smile a lot. At least that's my story and I'm sticking to it! ha.
ReplyDeleteYes, why is that anyway? At least we earn 'em! -J
ReplyDeleteYou are so right about laugh lines...bring 'em on!
ReplyDeleteWrinkles say we've lived and laughed. That's a good thing.
ReplyDeleteHH ~ indeed we do! LOL!
ReplyDeleteI'm currently 34. In an age where teenagers are starting to use anti-wrinkle creams, and many people are undergoing elective cosmetic surgery because of pressure from this "culture of youth", I had decided years ago that there would be no little pots of 'remedies' or unnecessary needles. I would not freak out about lines around my eyes. I will, instead, focus on more pressing matters.... like the Krispy Kremes! Long live pleasures!!!
ReplyDeleteHMC ~ I totally agree! Not only could I not afford a facelift, I think they look incredibly fake. Here...have another krispy kreme! ;)
ReplyDeleteKrinkle looks right to me
ReplyDeleteand the little jar looks fab.
Hahahah, yes, completely appropriate. funny thing is I didn't get the K until you noted it here. Hee.
ReplyDeleteI've often wondered the same thing there ...along with how white hairs for men is a sign of being distinguished looking but just old for women. Really not fair, but I must say, if it has to break one was or the other, I am glad I get to grow more and more distinguished then. LOL.
