I have old copper-looking gelatin molds hanging on the wall above the
cabinets in the kitchen. They're so very retro.
Mom gave them to me
when *they* moved here. (I remember her making Jell-O in a couple of
them when I was very little.) They have moved with me (in a box) since
the 1980's. I finally found a place for them... right back in "Mom's"
house. :-D
