Oh - remember butter??? BUTTER! The ration allowance was for a couple of ounces a week - oh, the day it was available was heaven! It was the only day we didn't have to eat that white grease, colored with the separate package of yellow dye (to mix or not to mix, that is the question?) - early margarine.... YUCK! I would cover the slice of bread or crackers with butter - Mother would scream "I can't see any bread through the butter! Take some off!", so I'd dutifully move it around, from one side to the other - but really, really try not to remove any of the heavenly butter. My cousins also hated the marge, so their mother, instead, would sprinkle some cocoa powder on a slice of bread - and hey, presto! a chocolate sandwich! What could be more luxurious? ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ---------------------~--> Buy Ink Cartridges or Refill Kits for your HP, Epson, Canon or Lexmark Printer at MyInks.com.
