Wow Cindy, to be able to treasure and share these wonderful memories is wonderful. I love the two photos and the apron well stitched. I bet those days of "runny potatoes" are no more as you are a wonderful cook and I would love to sit at your table
awesome lo Cindy. As always your journaling is interesting and well written. Love that you included Christmas cards from these two ladies who obviously made an impression on you and impacted a part of your life. The preservation of these memories is the true gift of a scrapper. GREAT job.
Virginia Stoneking and Beulah Hall were my supervisors when I started working in WVU hospital dietary in 1973. "Stoney" the head cook and her assistant Beulah were different, one ornery and wiry, one calm and serene. Both were dedicated and kind.
My everyday after school task was to make mashed potatoes for patient dinners. I steamed the peeled and halved potatoes, then made four varieties of whips for specific diets. Sometimes my potatoes were runny-but my mentors never got mad.
We wore pink uniforms-perhaps fitting as "pink collar" often refers to those in the service industry.
My pocket contains Christmas cards from the 2 ladies.
