And as for bad memories "tainting" our likes and dislikes and I text book on that one. I was adopted as a 10 year old, certain colors I JUST CAN'T TAKE as they come from my "before" life. And as far as what I really can't take, it's old cabinetry. Yep you hit it on the head.....It's what might be IN the old cabinets that make me shudder, yuck! LOVE Pam's metal kitchen, lol!

I am 49 and as a kid I hated avocado green. I now love it. I just did my kitchen in red-orange formica and avocado green appliances and it looks gorgeous. In fact Apartment Therapy just did a spread on my apartment iin Los Angeles. So what someone may have disliked in the past isn't always what they like now! I can attest to that. As you age your taste changes. Well, I have been into retro vintage for 30 years now. I am 49 and as a kid I hated avocado green. I now love it.
