Katy Rice Harvest Festival, Will You be there?

I think one of my favorite things about the fall is all of the family friendly activities you can find throughout the communities.  My personal favorite are the festivals, shopping, entertainment, and lots to eat!  Can't go wrong with that !  

Every year, the city of Katy hosts the Katy Rice Harvest Festival.  There will be MANY opportunities to shop, as the streets are lined w/ vendors and booths full of really fun stuff.  There is also entertainment for the kids, bounce houses, carnival type rides,  live music, and games.  If you are looking for something fun for everyone in the family, come on out !!

The Festival is Saturday & Sunday , October 8th & 9th. 

Here is a link to the official website: http://www.riceharvestfestival.org/

Cereal Box Goodies

In checking out these Cereal Box Premiums from circa ...1950's, I wondered, how is it possible that cereal boxes actually had COOL stuff in them?  Now days you can find things like 'tongue tattoos' or stickers, but who wants that when you can have some of the quality stuff they used to surprise us with ?





















I researched these little tin circles with car names on them for awhile, I wasn't sure they had much value, but they sure did look cool.  In my research I found that Wheaties had quite the cool collection of goodies in their boxes.  So check em out - I think the avid car memorabilia collector would LOVE these -
