I used to love the smell of palmolive soap. So many memories wrapped up in that aroma.

My parents and my hubby's parents never had a dishwasher (I take that back...hubby was on permanent groundings growing up...his aunties would call the house and he would be the first one to answer the phone, which was by the sink, and they would say, "...grounded again?"-his "penance time" included dish washing duties...this is so true haha... but I must say, he still is a stellar dish washer with all those years of practice!)

Love the art deco ad and the music clip, esp hearing the "crinkly, swishy" effects of the old time recording.

I dont have a dishwasher and I use palmolive. Its always been one of my favourite soaps and one of the few Im not allergic too. I didnt realise it had been around so long X

There can be too many dishes if you can do them in less than four minutes. Beside, Marge the manicurist says it's good for your hands.

My parents never had a dishwasher either...instead they had 3 daughters!

That just sounds wishy washy to me. [LOL!!!] :)

2009-07-30T22:05:22.259+02:00

I never knew where they got the name either. But I do believe that the sort of continuing drama serial, probably on air daily for 15 minutes are called "soap operas" because they were sponsored by brands of soap.

I love this artistic style. Someday I'm going to learn how to do it! What a lovely advertisement.

Thank you for sharing, Marie! By the way, Dad is doing better. Thanks for your thoughts and prayers.

My dishwasher died on me about ten months ago, and I have no desire to buy a new one. I kind of enjoy doing them by hand. As a matter of fact, I'm off to do some now!

Isn't it amazing how much time that takes,doing dishes that is. I'm surprised your boys don't want to help. You'll have dishpan hands by the time you get back to Paris.

The 'Oh Madge' commercials were aired internationally too! They changed her name to Tilly in Germany and Marie in France:)

"You're soaking in it!" "Oh, Madge..."

They also did "Palmolive Beauty Box Theater" for a few years during the '30s, which was more of a playhouse-style program than a variety show. I think you can still find some shows online.

Palmolive reminds me of my grandma, she loved that stuff! It has a very distinctive smell that always reminds me of her. Thanks for the lovely music, I played it while I was loading the dishwasher!

Sorry...couldn't resist!!
