Check out these other Boomer-related sites:
Cool stuff to buy:
Jack
and Friends is a great site, though it's more 50s and even some
40s. But, some boomers were around then and others had 50s kitchens
even if they were growing up in the 60s. I love the laundry room
products as well. Check it out.

Repro
depot is full of reproductions from our past. Fabric, ribbon,
tablecloths, buttons and patterns.

Vintage kitchen linens, aprons, hankies, even fine antique quilts

This is a UK company, but still worth a look, especially if you're
a fan of 70s patterns.

This is one of Betty's fave site names. Aging Hipsters
covers trends, research, comment and discussion of and by people
born from 1946 - 1964 and includes articles and bulletin boards
on Boomer culture and issues.

This very busy site, Baby Boomer Headquarters, features
trivia, books, lyrics, music, and memories of the most exciting
decades of the century: the 50s, 60s and 70s. They offer an online
high school reunion registry and tons of factoids and tidbits
about Boomers.

The Boomer Initiative states its mission is "to
unite the Boomers much as AARP has united the retired people,
but much more" and they offer membership into their group,
that they say includes a magazine. We'll get the publication and
let you know what it's all about.

This is a site developed and written by "baby
boomer women expert," Dotsie Bregel. She says her site "offers
a safe and therapeutic haven for baby boomer women to share what's
on their hearts anonymously and without judgment. Wise, warm,
and witty women with kindred spirits share thoughtful insight
every day. Encourage-Connect-Support."
Dotsie also founded an organization for boomer women,
the National Association of Baby Boomer Women that also has a
website: www.nabbw.com/
