Exactly!

You had tablecloths for every day and for holidays.

Just for holidays.

You didn't have just one tablecloth for Christmas. Several to choose.

[Angharad]

Yes.

You or your mother had/have the felt-backed pads for your table which go under the tablecloth and cushion/protect the wood from your dishes, etc.    

[Westerly_2]

No longer. We tended to use potholders and kitchen towels 

You remember party lines. (My aunt used to listen in on the other party. No life of her own, I guess)

I do! Wild how much things have changed.

You had a real milkman who came to your house.

He did. And cottage cheese.

You sometimes had cottage cheese and pineapple as a kid.

Not as a kid, no 

As a kid you had some toys stamped on the back "made in occupied Japan."
