I ran across this old pic of my parents cooking outdoors and it made me
smile. This appears to have been taken in the 1950's but I couldn't swear to it. Looks like they're grilling a few puny chicken leg quarters: https://s22.postimg.cc/63j36azip/grillng.jpg What, no vegetables? There's a lot of wasted space on that grill. But look at Dad wielding a fork! LOL Jill |

That and I didn't see either of my brothers as babes or toddlers in the pic so maybe they weren't born yet, either. That would put it around 1951 or 52. ![]() I do resemble my mother, much more now that I'm older. None of us kids really look very much like either parent. I like the outfit Mom was wearing. Looks cool and comfortable! As for the chicken, meh. I hope that's not all they had to eat. Jill |

This one just happens to be cooking and food related. ![]() I loved the outfit she was wearing. She looked so cool and comfortable. Slightly wrinkled, sure. Cotton or linen. It looks white but could have been any pastel shade. That's the fun thing about old B&W pics... you have to guess. ![]() I'd wear something like that. Hmmm, I think I have. Jill |

Isn't it traditional for the woman to cook the boring vegetable stuff in the kitchen while the man does the heroic meat stuff outside on the BBQ? |
