Trip to NYC

(1990)

Thank you for looking up me and The Woman's Home Companion. Aren't you smart!?! The snap of me is taken at Beaumont Avenue, and I am wearing an apron and hat made from a kit advertised in Woman's Home Companion which I sent for. You know WHC paid all my expenses including travel [to go to NY and be interviewed for an article on her craft work]. It wanted me to have my picture taken and then decided the enclosed was better as it also advertised the set. LL was in Milwaukee when I read the invitation but decided I'd get lost alone in a big city so came with me and paid his own expenses. My impression was that of a clean city. In the morning the sidewalks were all scrubbed in front of stores. Ev ery day. All in good taste.
