(1980 memoirs)
So these two meals [breakfast & lunch] were usually eaten on a shelf that pulled down or out from the pass-thru cupboard. A neat white linen towel served as tablecloth, and the service was laid out as neatly and fine as if it were in the dining room. Everything was indeed very close and very handy!
Polly Kay (1904-1997) vividly and with humor describes her life in Richland Center, Wisconsin, in excerpts from letters to her son Skip written after 1949, including her 5 last years in an old folks' home.
