They always had good travel stuff and we invariably said, "I didn't know that was there! Let's go see it!" Thanks, Antonia….when we lived in New England we subscribed to “Yankee” magazine.

It's true that most people not from New England aren't aware of the ingrained, fun tradition of these seemingly slap-dash meals. My first-ever taste of lobster was at a church supper on Prince Edward Island, where the lobster had been caught that morning (it ruined forever the thought of lobster tails sold at inland restaurants). My next book review, in fact, is self-published from the fiction editor of Yankee magazine, Edie Clark (she also writes the column "The View from Mary's Farm"), and is titled "Saturday Beans and Sunday Suppers."
