hamburger vintage postcard
I found a hamburger phone in our local junk/antique shop! This sesame seeded cuteness now adorns a plate resting on the kitchen counter. My boys rushed to find plastic french fries from their toy box and added to the kitschy fat-free decor! This was the most fun $5 dollars I've spent in ages:)

How unique is that!
You are very brave, Marie. I am afraid that I would become hungry every time I answered the phone!
Now you can have it your way! Fun post. Happy Thrifty Thursday.
This kills me... how fun for your kids! Delicious find (couldn't resist.)
I've seen Burger Chefs...
The phone is superb...I've never seen one of those.
What a great surprise!
That's a cool phone--does it work?
It works like a charm Postcardy:)
Ah, Burger Chief, just one of the many old burger stands I remember.
The phone is cute.
I just returned from a drive on Route 66 and saw places like Burger Chief. I love that card.

My family opened up a Burger King across the street from a Burger Chef :) I hadn't thought about Burger Chef in eons!!
I just saw a hamburger phone in a movie...what was it...Oh, it was in the movie Juno! Cool!!
That must have been fun, I can see it in front of me, your son running to get more stuff around the phone.
You made me smile, thank you, MB
You found and presented some really neat things. I enjoy VTT so much for everyone seems to come with things I have not seen in a long time. Thanks for visiting my post.
I remember 'novelty' phones! They are such fun. Nice postcard too. :o)
This post reminded me of when guys thought they were cool asking women, "Have you got fries to go with that shake?" LOL ~Lori
instead of calling someone, I may end up ordering a burger from MCD delivery! lols
How cute is that in a kitchen. And quite the conversation piece, huh?Thanks for participaing in Thrifty Thursday this week! I was late in posting the links, so forgive me. It's my fault that you may have some late visits.

What a neat phone. It should emit the aroma of fries and sizzling burgers when it rings.
This is just too cute!! To even see a phone that isn't the size of a deck of cards is cool!!

Funny phone! Nice find, Marie!
Something strange is happening with my "bloglist"--this post keeps showing up as your latest post. But you have done 2 different PFF posts since this one. And I have refreshed my page, closed it multiple times, and used 2 different browsers.
Do you have any idea why that is happening?
my husband needs a phone like that - he is a burger addict! :)
You competed with Ronald Whatnot !
He won't forgive you about the size. Absolutely unfair !
I covet this. I don't even know why.
so with this burger phone, I can have a burger, and eat it. :)
