(1980 memoirs)
It was like the time Cousin Frankie brought to my attention how curious it was if you repeated the names of three vegetables in a row you got a very strange message. You have heard them I am sure. Who hasn't? Lettuce, turnip, and pea. Neither she nor I had the least inclination to laugh at that, either. Though peculiar.
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.
