I was cleaning up the kitchen after dinner the other evening and I started thinking about what Lou and I had brought into our marriage and how we have incorporated it all into our daily life.
Lou's cutting board is the larger one. He thinks he acquired it upon returning to the single life in 1986. He says that he probably picked it up at the grocery store when he realized he didn't have one. I had large ones similar during my previous life, but they were either lost to the division or sold at a garage sale. I use my little paddle style cutting board often. I bought it when I was 19, sometime shortly before I went to live in Tucson in 1974. I stayed in Tucson about 18mo. working at The Broadway dept store as the basic stock manager, I had my own office and pager number (you know that chime you would hear in dept. stores) for about 6 months before they eliminated that position and made me Men's Furnishings Mgr. It is the job that made me dislike shopping.
and those jars behind, you got those sometime in the 90's after the divorce when we would buy little things that didn't cost too much. it was that effort to get the style of home we wanted. :)
ReplyDeleteI hadn't remembered where those had come from, thanks for remembering! That was a very difficult time, you brought me much comfort during those years just by being so loyal without taking sides. Thank you!<3 MOM
