One of our AOL readers sent in this story:
My husband, daughter and I were at a huge antique mall last week. As we were going through the endless aisles, looking into the hundreds of glass cases, my daughter spied a "faux fur" coat, as it was labeled and marked $25.00. Upon examining the coat, my daughter said that she thought that it was not "faux" but real fur, although we didn't know what kind of fur. It was in great condition, the lining was perfect and there was a monogram. It seemed like the real thing.For $25 she bought it. This past weekend we took it to a furrier and they confirmed that it was sheared beaver and quite valuable I didn't ask for an estimate of its value but if feel that the coat was a genuine bargain."

Trish R. requests a fruit salad recipe: "I remember having a fruit salad at a wake in the late 70's. The host called it "5 Cup Fruit Salad". It had pineapple, mini marshmallows in it, and other fruit, maybe coconut, and something "white" to keep it all together - maybe whipped cream. Does anyone have an original vintage recipe that sounds similar?"

If you have a vintage recipe request send it to recipes@tias.com and we might just publish it here.
