know what to do!” Kasey immediately said, “MARRY HIM!”
So she did!
Hanging in the middle of their home was a huge oil painting of Freddie the Flute from H.R. Pufnstuf, with a mat signed by all the people on the show.
Sandra, also a fantastic artist, had many of her own paintings hanging throughout the house. One I remember in particular was a colorful carnival scene she painted from the actual carnival used in an episode of Bewitched called “ Tabitha’s Very Own Samantha. ”
The day after the ’94 earthquake, Kasey and I called Sandy to see if she was alright. She laughed and said everything was alright with the exception of a pot of spaghetti that had been cooking on the stove and was now all over the ceiling, counters, and floor. I have to admire her. There she was standing with noodles hanging down over her head, but she was still able to laugh about it.
Bewitched fans will find this fun. Sandy’s kitchen stove was the exact model used on the show; a Frigidaire Flair, complete with burners on a sliding drawer that could be pulled out and pushed back in. She loved it so much from the show that she went out and bought herself one just like it!
Sandy decided that she needed to redecorate her kitchen. She hired a guy named Ralph to do most of the work. Ralph had no front teeth, but was a lot of fun. One day I was over helping Sandra clean out the pantry. I was digging through all the jars, cans, and boxes when I unearthed a jar of Cheeze-Whiz, which is usually bright orange. Well, not this jar! It had turned to moldy gray. Then
I noticed an expiration date of 1974 (20 years!)! Needless to say, that unearthed treasure went right in the garbage.
Continuing to dig through all the clutter, I discovered a tin of Oreo cookies that I later found out had been given to her by Joan Rivers as a present for being on her show. When I opened up the tin, I found a mound of half-eaten cookies entirely covered in webs ! It was completely webbed over! That got tossed too.
Also in Sandra’s pantry were cans of corn. There had to be at least FORTY of them and most of them were bulging! She was working
in another part of the house, so every time I would come across another can of corn, I’d yell “CORN!” Then Ralph would yell “CORN!” and then Sandra would chime in from way down the hall, “CORN!!” I sometimes think if I’d kept digging, I might’ve found Jimmy Hoffa… there was never a dull moment with “Mrs. Kravitz”! I miss her so very, very much.
This is neat: On the top of Sandra’s refrigerator sat the cake topper from her wedding to “Holly.” It still had the now brown frosting caked around the plastic bottom. Even the bride and grooms feet had frosting remnants on it. I remember meticulously cleaning the frosting off so that it could be put back on top of the fridge. It still had the original price tag, $1.39, on the bottom. Many years later, long after Sandy had gone, I was in a thrift store with my friend Darlene near her house. Honest to God there it sat. I bought it and still have it!
In August of ’97, we were having a pool party at our friend Scott Awley’s. Sandy attended and changed her clothes, putting on a black sundress that she wore to get in the pool. Suddenly I realized a chance of a life time… So I snuck into Scott’s spare room, put Sandra’s panties on my head and fastened her bra around my chest. Then I sauntered out to the pool…
If you thought Sandra could scream “Abner!” you haven’t lived until you’ve heard her scream “MAAAAAAAARRRRRK!!!”
Once I accompanied Sandy to the Comedy Awards and got to meet Jim Carrey and Tom Hanks! I also was NOT prepared to go and being last minute I ended up wearing one of Holly’s old sport coats and my jeans to a formal affair! Sandy made up a silly story that I had just flown in and the airlines lost my luggage! Yet another time, she coerced me into accompanying a young lady-friend of hers to the Thalian’s Ball.
