Love stories

I had dinner with my delightful 87 year old friend Betty Manderino tonight.  I love spending time with her and listening to her share things about her life (and her cooking).  Tonight she shared this story: Immediately after they were married they moved to a base in California.  It was 1945 and you couldn't buy anything metal because of the war.  Betty told Gus one day that she wished she had a potato masher because she was tired of eating baked and boiled potatoes. Gus found some extra heavy wire on their clothesline and made her this potato masher.   That's love.
