Norman
I never thought I'd miss old Norman Rockwell, but now that the Raging Right has discarded him for something more like the Leni Rieffenstahl aesthetic set to Country and Western music, these really look good now.
I bet Grandma&Grandpa didn't think about whether there were any "freeloaders" at the table, did they? [Thinks of the guy in Tennessee whose home---and pets :-( ---burned down, cuz he didn't pay the FEE to the fire department!]

I stand by my comments. I expect you to do likewise.
I loved Rockwell for his illustrations on the covers of the Saturday Evening Post, mostly.
