Went to Mrs. Evans' for 2#* Butter
Rec'd letter from Iliff
Harry came this afternoon and took Mother and I to Ithaca-
Had a nice time
Harry treated me to a banana split-
Mother good all day-
but fell in the wood house this eve
did not hurt her so she said-

| Cabot's Ice Cream in Newtonville, MA- Banana Boat |
*No, Irene didn't mess up her hashtag. This means 2# = two pounds.
^The banana split was invented in 1904 by apprentice pharmacist David Evans Strickler in Latrobe, PA. See the article HERE. < Image from Wikipedia http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9f/Traditional_Banana_Boat.jpg >

Thanks for visiting this flashback to 1936. I'm sure Irene would be pleased! We'd love to hear from you.
