I will also enclose the record of a previous
celebration, which was equally as entertaining.
We had so much fun over our
Filet d'aloyain braise aux Champignone."
No one knew what it was, and each one
did not wish to let the other know that
she was not familiar with the dish,
so we all sent out for it, with a very
matter of course sort of an air, and
found that it was old roast beef,
with a little mushroom sauce over
it!
To change the subject you ought
to have seen me when I came in from
walking yesterday. It was snowing, and
consequently my skirts were all draggled,
and my stockings wet half way up to my
ankles (is that right? it is too much trouble to get up
and get a dictionary) But my feet! Oh you should have
seen my feet. They were as red as beets,
In fact just the color. I rubbed them for
about fifteen minutes, and then when
I felt them with my hand, they were
as cold as ice.
It Is time to mail this, so goodbye.
Now be generous, and write me once or twice
during vacation won't you. I wish that
I were going to be at home. Tell Jessie that
I hate her.
Lovingly,
Sallie
