Mmmmm. Steak! And a liquor server, too!
Reading Popular Mechanics magazines from the 1970's, c/o Google Books this morning, I came across this odd contraption that wouldn't pass fire code today: The genuine wood veneer Electric Steak Grill and Liquor Server (a server is a waist-height table that you usually place near a dining room table and sit extra dishes and accessories for dinner on). Aside from the general trip of eyeballing old cigarette ads where every many looked like Robert Redford, it was a fun read. Worked my way through about 7 issues before feeling an intense need to carve an inexpensive wood duck decoy and smoke a few Kools.
Did life seem ridiculously easy back then, or is that just the fog of time setting in?
Booze and steaks.
And cigarettes for everyone!
