Glad to serve as an inspiration. FYI: I have a free interactive iBook with loads of historical media that examines the role of woman on the WWII American Homefront. More info here: "Work, Duty, Glamour: How They Sold War Work To Housewives" https://peterpappas.com/2013/07/work-duty-glamor-selling-war-work-to-housewives.html

Thanks again, your platform has opened up a whole new rabbit hole for me to fall into, lol.

I linked to this post in my latest that dropped this morning. Would love to find a subject to collaborate on - I reading about Ancient Food habits, do you have any research on that topic?

Ric, thanks for the shoutout. Glad you found inspiration. Sadly, I don't have much on ancient food habits. Although I just started reading "The Dawn of Everything: A New History of Humanity" So maybe I'll learn something?

Wow, I just read the entire booklet. My first impression was "what a patriarchal load of crap!" The I read it. Yeah, it's full of patriarchy, but also full of questions. More questions than answers in fact. It actually is worming its way into my post on Friday! Thanks!
