There were usually a few kittens under the por ch or they could go through all the portraits she kept in an armadeilo she ll basket. He kitchen range had a reservoir for hot water, the table t op was zinc and there was a great little pump for the kitchen sink. The w ell, however, gave sulfer water and she made coffee with it. Nothing cou ld beat Aunt Winnie's crisp ginger and molasses cookied. She was free wi th her opinion of Hitler and Father Coughlin, but she never gave away h er cookie receipe.
