Cloudy & misty rain
Harry worked some in door yard and it got too wet-
I made banana cream pie and roasted pork loin and stewed apples for dinner-
Harry left us about 4 o'clock this afternoon for Auburn-
Aunty rec'd a nice letter from Clara today-
I washed and ironed my blue dress and fastened on new collar-
55 year old widow, Irene Dolton (nee Smith), kept a diary while living in Ludlowville, NY with Mother & Aunty in 1936.

Sunday, February 16, 1936
Icy but plesant
30 [degrees] above zero at noon-
Thawed some in the sun-
Had company dinner and not any one came*- Roast pork^- mashed potatoes, brown gravy, spinach, sweet potatoes, pickle pears, bread and butter, and pumpkin pie-
Iliff called this eve-
Washed Mothers neck and combed her hair- She has been good all day
*This is so sad. Irene spent 2-3 days preparing this amazing meal & no one came, probably due to the ice. Poor Great-grandma.
