Tuesday 4 Meme- Sandwiches and Housewifery

Sandwiches and Housewifery

Welcome to Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4!
November 3rd is both national sandwich day and national housewife's day.
In the 1950s working married women outnumbered working single women , In a US population of a little over 161 million, over 9 million married women worked, while only 5 million single women had jobs.
The Dagwood sandwich based on the Chic Young comic
" Dagwood", became very popular and men made them for themselves, the bigger the better.


Dagwood made his own sandwiches!

1. What is your favorite sandwich ? I like the Club Sandwich

2. Do you have a favorite Sandwich shop? We all know that soup and a sandwich is a great lunch but do you ever eat sandwiches for breakfast or supper?  I like a place called Firehouse Subs.  The sandwich I like is called the Hook and Ladder

3. Growing up did your mother , grandmother, aunts have a job as well as being a housekeeper?  My Granie did not work at an out of the home job, she was a homemaker.  My mom was an accountant for a theme park, one aunt worked as a postal carrier, another aunt worked for an oil company, another aunt was a teacher. 


4. According to the United Nations, unpaid domestic labor is the number one most important driver of the entire global economy.
78% of women shoulder all the domestic and child caring labor as well as holding down full or part time jobs. Without women the global economy would fail.
Did you juggle a family and a job ?  Yes and I went to college too when Josh was in 1st grade until 4th grade.  I worked full time as a teacher and went to college to get certified and take state licensing as well as maintaining the house.  It was hard, but worth it.
