Good morning!
Sorry for the delayed email on Thursday, but it was Mailchimp’s fault…for once. While I greeted you “good morning” and told you to enjoy your lunch, you were probably eating dinner. Sigh.
What I love about Snaps? The reader participation and the emails I get from time to time about one or another. Remember this snap from Michael Santiago?
A reader wrote in: My grandfather, who passed on many years ago, worked as a food chemist at Albers in San Francisco from about 1920 to 1923. He would reminisce briefly about Albers, tell me he made $20 per week (which was about the wages of a skilled laborer back then, when bread cost a few pennies per loaf)
Time and memories.
There is a lot to do, as you will see below. Also, Eleni’s detail of the uneaten sandwiches in Cop Watch has stayed with me: a whole story in a detail.
If you have not already, join the many others who support Mission Local – a wonderful group of readers.
Enjoy the weekend,
Lydia
