Food Chopper

The food chopper belonged to my mother, Lille Strahl Cardinal, and we used by her until her death in 1948.

Whe he began keeping house, my son Peter took it and continues to use it.

Round Table

The round table was made by my grandfather, Joseph Cardinal (1830-1913), and came to my father after Grandpa's death.

As I remember it, the table was a dark color. It was later painted black, and then, still later, gray.

My son, Peter, now has the table.
