The journey to ever after.Based on a post by Senor Longo. Listen to the ► Podcast at Connected.THE FREAK; Part 6; The ConclusionOver the river and through the woods.The roads in this part of the Island are narrow two-lane secondary roads with low speed limits and frequent no-passing zones, but the traffic is typically light. I headed west until I ran into Route 25A. It runs along the North Shore all the way from Queens to Riverhead, the Suffolk County seat. From Riverhead the bungalow was only a half-hour away. There was no driveway so I drove onto the lawn, parking next to Mom's car, just before lunch. Carole and my other sisters ran out to see us and Kelly was excited to see them, as well. All the same, I slipped her leash onto the collar before letting her out. She sniffed Marie and Angela then licked Carole's face as I handed her the leash's handle. She ran off, leading our pet into the house. Barbara was laughing. “Quite a welcome, eh?”“Pretty much what I expected; they've wanted a dog for years, but my mom always said no. Maybe she'll change her mind one of these days.” I leaned across the seat and we kissed. Unfortunately, that was all we'd be able to do over the next week unless we walked down to the beach late at night, maybe for an evening swim. Hmmm, that was a really good idea.I carried our suitcase and Kelly's bed into the house while Barbara handled her food and bowls. I dumped the bottle of water that we'd brought for her onto the lawn after closing up the car. We never locked anything here, not even the front door when we left for the beach or shopping. I dropped everything in what used to be my room while Barbara set up Kelly's bowls in the kitchen.We changed into our suits and walked down to the beach after lunch. Mom was really old-school, insisting that none of us swim for at least an hour after eating even though I had debunked that as an old wives tale for years. Once again, my experiences at the public library had proven fruitful. My research had turned up more than a dozen articles; some scholarly; on the subject and all were contrary to the idea that digesting food could lead to a fatal “stomach cramp.” Barbara and I joked with my sisters as we strolled down the path.Our first trip to the beach had been in late March when the weather was cool. Today the temperature was in the mid-to-high eighties with only a light breeze. It was Barbara's first opportunity to see the beach's real appeal. Looking to the left and right from the bottom of the steps we couldn't see another living soul for almost a mile. The water was glass flat and the tide was coming in. I liked low tide for snorkeling and spear-fishing, but there were lots of rocks; some as big as a foot across only eight to ten feet from shore at low tide. There were only tiny pebbles and sand to walk on at high tide. However, I knew from experience that stepping on those tiny objects would hurt like hell once our feet were wet and the skin was soft. That's why I had told Barbara to wear flip-flops to and from the water.We had just placed the blanket onto the sand when Barbara smiled at me and said, “I can see why you love it here, Jack. I can't believe that the water is so clear and clean.”“It should be exactly like this every day unless the wind shifts and we get a nor'easter. Then the water will be rough and cloudy for a day or two. I'd have to say that high tide will be around four today. That means it will be later at night by the weekend. We can come down after dinner and go for a swim. It's only safe at high tide because of the rocks. Of course, there are other things we could do here on the beach; alone; together; in the dark.”“Imagination; that's only one of the reasons why I love you.” She reached up to kiss me then we walked together into the warm water.We swam out about fifty feet. It was my first chance to see Barbara swim. She'd never make the Olympics, but I thought she was much better than average. We swam and floated and showed our love for each other, getting out of the water only when we began to get cold. Even then I was recruited by Carole to be her diving platform. I lifted her so she could stand on my shoulders, only letting her dive when I knew she was in deep enough water. I stood there helping her for almost twenty minutes before I picked her up and threw her bodily into the water. “J.J.!” She acted as though she was pissed, but we both knew better. A few seconds later she began to laugh and I joined her as Barbara stood to towel me dry.I showed Barbara the rock I had told her about; the one we could dive from once the tide was high enough. We walked there around 3:30, climbing up the rear of the rock and diving off the deeper front then swimming back up its smooth sloped surface. We were on the rock when Barbara asked, “Where is our lot, Jack?”I pointed to a long staircase that ran from almost the top of the bluff to the beach's surface about two hundred feet away. “That staircase belongs to my friend Mike's family. You haven't met him yet, but you will. He's in the Navy now, but he lives there with his mother and grandmother. Anyway, our lot is just to the right of his; figure about 100 feet from the staircase.” I pointed so Barbara could see more clearly. We left the beach at five so we could walk up, and wash at the shower just outside the kitchen window. Once on the concrete base we could wash and dry ourselves without walking grass or dirt into the house.After dinner I suggested we get Carvel for dessert. Not surprisingly, everyone enthusiastically agreed. We closed the doors to keep Kelly inside and everyone piled into the Olds for the fifteen minute ride to Rocky Point. Most of us ordered cones, but Mom insisted that Carole get a cup; she was a slow and sloppy eater. We stood outside, leaning against the car as we joked and enjoyed our treats. It was dark and almost time for Carole to go to bed when we returned to the bungalow. That's when we learned that she would sleep in her sleeping bag in the room with my other sisters. “You deserve to have some privacy, but please remember that my head is only a foot or so from your bed so DO try to keep the noise down.” I laughed, but I could see the twinkle in Barbara's eyes. We turned in early because we had an early appointment with Mark Hanley, my friend's brother-in-law.We drove into Rocky Point again early the following morning to buy some pastries from the local bakery. Their donuts and Danish were great, but my favorite was the fruit ring; a 12-inch Danish crust filled with cherry, blueberry, and pineapple fillings. Everyone loved it so I bought two. We left to meet Mark at 8:50, walking down the hill to our lot.We wore jeans because the lot had yet to be cleared and there was almost certainly going to be a lot of poison ivy. Mark was right on time. We shook hands and walked onto the lot which I knew from the survey was two thirds of an acre; 150 feet by almost 195 with the land sloping up from the road to the top of the bluff. First, we talked about where to locate the house so we'd have a yard in the front and back then we got into the details of what we wanted; a family room and attached two-car garage, living and dining rooms, kitchen, two full bathrooms, and four bedrooms. We also wanted a screened porch in back where we could sit and enjoy the view. “We don't know much about floor plans so we'll leave it to you to come up with some ideas.” He agreed and gave us a few which we incorporated into the drawings he would make for us within the next week.Both Barbara and I had orientation scheduled for the second full week of September so we planned to stay on Long Island for almost all of the week of Labor Day before driving back to Somerville. We'd have the beach entirely to ourselves. The summer season ends on Labor Day which I had always thought was a shame because the weather in September is ideal for the beach and the water is perfectly warm; for Long Island, anyway.Mark phoned three days later, telling us that he had a few books of floor plans and had made a few scale drawings using them as a guide. He came the following morning at ten, spreading several large sheets of graph paper on the table for us to look at. He had given us exactly what we wanted and more. The basement held a two-car garage on the right with a large family room and small kitchenette on one side with a laundry room and lavatory behind a wall on the other. Also there was the oil burner and hot water heater and room for a workshop and storage.Upstairs the house was shaped in a “U” with the dining room, eat-in kitchen, and another lavatory on the left. The center was a large living room with sliding glass doors leading out to the screened porch. The other side held the master suite, three smaller bedrooms, and another full bath. Mark explained that he thought a vaulted ceiling in the living room and master bedroom would be interesting touches if our budget could handle them. He also suggested a tray ceiling in the dining room so we could have a real chandelier.He also showed us a typical colonial house, but commented that we'd have to remove a lot of soil to accommodate it. I thought that was a bad idea and told him so. He agreed, saying, ”I have to show clients a variety of plans and I always list the pro's and con's. You beat me to the punch on that one.” Barbara liked the U-shaped house so we asked him to put together a formal proposal.I remembered to ask about access to the attic, thinking about storage and Mark agreed to add a regular staircase rather than folding stairs near the kitchen to that area, also suggesting that his men place plywood flooring up there to accommodate us. Barbara asked if we could add doors from our bedroom to the screened porch. Mark agreed that would be a good idea. I knew that there would be dozens of additional decisions as the house progressed, but we weren't that far away. He returned the Tuesday after Labor Day with an estimate of $93,000. I wrote a check for $20,000 as a down payment when we signed the contract.Barbara and I took my sisters out for miniature golf and banana splits on Thursday night and on Friday we gave Mom and Dad who had driven out after work the night off by taking them out to the drive-in. It was a family movie; a comedy; that we all enjoyed although Big C fell asleep long before it was over. I carried her into the house around eleven then Barbara, Kelly, and I went for a late night swim.The walk down the path was aided by a flashlight as Kelly capered back and forth in front of us. I knew that I'd have to check her for ticks tomorrow, but that wouldn't take more than half an hour; less with Barbara's help.Once on the beach Barbara came into my open arms for the most passionate kiss of our trip. We'd had sex our first night; oral, a sixty-nine to keep the noise under control. Tonight we'd make glorious love under the moonlight, maybe in the water. That would be a first for both of us.I led my fantastic wife down to the water. The tide was ebbing, but was still high enough to enter the water safely. We had worn our suits, but they dropped to the ground in an instant. Holding hands we walked together into the water as Kelly scampered back and forth, barking, but not getting any deeper than her paws.I began by massaging Barbara's ass as we came together for a long steamy kiss. Her arms were around my neck and her legs around my waist. I moved my hands to massage what I thought were the perfect breasts, knowing that Barbara loved the sensation of my hands on her nipples and areolas. She got down to business by gripping my hard cock and bringing it to her molten tunnel. I was initially concerned about whether she would be lubricated, but my fears were unfounded. She shimmied down my shaft easily, moaning in ecstasy the entire time.Barbara laid back, floating while her legs moved up my torso. I must have been hitting that spot I hit when her legs were over my shoulders. I was driving into her at a brisk pace, but she was moving even faster. I thought it funny at the time that we were making one hell of a wave with every thrust. There was white foam all around us and that's not all. Our every movement resulted in a pale green light coming from the numerous comb jellies in the water.Unlike jellyfish, comb jellies have no stinging cells and, in fact, have no tentacles. They're basically filter feeders on plankton as they drift on the tide. There were probably millions or even billions in Long Island Sound, but unless you actually look for them you'd never know.We went at it furiously for only five minutes until I felt the familiar rumbling and Barbara shook wildly. I knew that she had cum when she screamed at the top of her lungs. The sound bounced off the bluffs probably for miles as I pumped her full of frothy white semen. I lowered her legs and held her tenderly for another ten minutes until she began to laugh. “We are definitely doing this again. I loved it, but I love you even more.” Then she showed it once again by kissing me, her tongue deep into my mouth.The rest of the trip passed quickly as we spent our days at the beach and our evenings entertaining my sisters, our late nights back on the beach making the most incredible; the most fantastic; love with my wife. Dad left early Tuesday morning as he did every week in order to get to work in time to eat some breakfast. We packed Mom's car with the suitcases in the morning and they left just after lunch. Barbara and I were alone except for Kelly as we waved good-bye to my family. We stayed until Thursday morning when I turned the water off, draining it out the hose cock and throwing the circuit breakers to turn off the electricity. Then I double checked the windows and front door before locking up the kitchen door and joining Barbara in the Olds with Kelly in the rear seat.The drive to Orient Point took just over an hour so we were early for our 11:00 reservation. I put the leash on Kelly and walked her near the beach on the side away from the ferry dock. She did her business and I dutifully cleaned up. We returned to the car just as the ferry was pulling in. Ten minutes later we were onboard and sitting on deck in the warm sun, knowing that we'd be in the shade once the boat turned around. We relaxed for the hour-long trip then drove north on I-95; the New England Thruway; all the way to Boston then west to Somerville.Kelly was obviously thrilled to be home. I had just parked in the garage when Barbara led her to the gate that enclosed the back yard. She bolted in, running around the perimeter at a wild pace causing us and our neighbor Paul, two yards away, to laugh wildly. “I'll be over in a few minutes with your mail.” We had just walked into the house when he rang the bell. We thanked him several times, but he just shrugged it off telling us that's what good neighbors do for each other. All the same we thanked him again, shaking hands before he left.We had a great weekend, taking Kelly into Boston for a stroll along the Charles River. We were stopped often by young children who asked if they could pet her. We went through the ritual of having her sit while I held her collar, sniffing the kids' hands, and then the energetic petting. It was great seeing the laughter and joy in the children's faces. Twice kids were afraid until I showed that Kelly would never bite them by pushing my arm into her mouth.Barbara and I made love; frantic monkey love; every night and every morning until Sunday when we spent the entire afternoon in bed, showering right after dinner and setting out our clothes tor Monday morning; the first day of orientation.I personally thought that most of it was a waste of time, but I did find the campus tour helpful as were the placement exams in English, math, and Spanish. I was exempted from Freshman English and from the math requirement. I was placed in Spanish 4 which I thought was appropriate. Barbara told me that she enjoyed her campus tour even though it was quite short. She found the placement exams “challenging.” On the positive side her freshman mixer was on Wednesday night while mine was on Thursday.I was challenged at the door to the gym where the mixer was held because I obviously had no Lesley Student ID. “This is my wife who is a student here. She wants to attend so she can meet some of the other freshmen. However, she is not going without me, just as I will not attend my mixer tomorrow evening without her. Don't worry; I'm not going to cause any trouble.” I pushed my way past him as Barbara and I entered the large open expanse. There was a huge canvas tarp over the gym floor, I assumed to protect the finish of the floor and there were several hundred chairs in a long continuous row all around the perimeter of the room. Canteens with soda and snacks had been set up at both ends of the basketball court.I led Barbara over to the opposite side for no reason other than to keep the entryway clear. We had a seat for a few minutes before getting up to dance. I was reminded of junior high with the boys and girls on opposite sides, neither quite willing to venture into hostile foreign territory so Barbara and I were the only dancers. That was okay with us. I had my hands around her succulent body while she moved into mine as closely as humanly possible.We had danced five slow and two fast dances when Barbara told me she was thirsty. I left her at the seats and walked over to the nearest canteen where I pulled two cold Coke cans from an ice-filled cooler. I saw that Barbara had acquired an admirer as I returned.“I'm flattered, but I'm really not interested.”“You're saying no, but we both know that you really mean yes.”“No, I'm definitely saying no to you. I mean it. Leave me alone. I'm a married woman.” Barbara held up her hand to show her rings.Then I heard her “suitor” respond. “Hey! That's okay; I love married women. There's no substitute for experience.”“That may be, but I think my husband would not approve. Oh, here he is now.”I handed the Cokes over to her as the jerk turned around. I had a scowl on my face as I reached out, taking his shirt and tie in my left hand. “This is your lucky day, little man.” There was terror etched into his face as I lifted him bodily off the floor and for good reason. I was at least eight inches taller and sixty pounds heavier and I was obviously all muscle while he was not. “I promised at the door that I wouldn't cause any trouble so I'm not going to take you apart. You were told no, weren't you? No means she's not interested so a gentleman would just turn around and try somewhere else. There are probably at least a hundred good looking girls here tonight. So, why don't you try your luck with those girls over there?” I pointed to a group of about ten standing about thirty feet away. “It goes without saying that you'll never approach my wife again. I'm right next door at Harvard and I promise I'll hunt you down like a mad dog if I hear even a single complaint from her lips. Do we understand each other?” He nodded quickly.I slowly lowered him to the floor, brushing away the wrinkles I had made in his clothes. Reaching into my pocket I found a ten dollar bill and pushed it into the pocket of his suit. “You'll need to have this suit and shirt cleaned and pressed. Now; get lost!” He did and that was the time I noticed the puddle he'd made. Looking at Barbara I laughed. “I think we need to find some new seats. There's a bit of a mess here.” She laughed, too then handed one of the cans to me. I opened it and took a long pull before leading Barbara away.Barbara waved to two girls who seemed to be walking toward us. “I met them at the tour and again during the placement exams. They're both from Massachusetts.” Barbara introduced me to Darla and Marianne. Even I ha
The institution that immediately comes to mind when we speak of food security is the public distribution system (PDS), the nation-wide network of ration shops that provide subsidised food grains. But over the past decade, another initiative, at the level of state governments, has made an impact – government canteens. The Indira Rasois of Rajasthan, the Amma Unavagams of Tamil Nadu and the India canteens of Karnataka, to name a few, have become popular, especially among migrant workers in our cities. A new survey of these canteens, conducted last year, documents their efficacy and draws some lessons regarding social policy interventions. It raises, and answers, some interesting questions: Why do we need government canteens when we already have PDS? Who frequents these canteens? How much do state governments actually spend on them? And are canteens something that should be scaled up and expanded to states that don't have them at present?

Ham & cheese toastie a winner in your household? School canteens in Western Australia have new restrictions in place which limit ham. Tune in to hear what's changed and the evidence behind it. We cover:New school canteen guidelines in Western Australia - why guidelines exist and what's changed? Key challenges that arise when creating nutrition guidelines around foods and drinksWhat is the evidence behind the restriction on ham?If choosing ham, how do you go about choosing a better one? What are some alternatives to ham? What about processed turkey or chicken slices? One-liners you don't want to miss:“Western Australia changed the guidelines that they provide to their schools. It refines where each food was categorised in terms of the traffic light system. Ham was one that was moved from being an amber food to a red food. Red meaning it can't be on the menu. There was a small catch, canteens could still sell ham for only two days per week if it was already on the menu before they made this change to the guidelines.”“This had some parents reportedly concerned, confused or frustrated about what that may mean their children would have access to at school.”“The change in WA was a change to the guidelines overall, it wasn't a change just to single out ham. Where we have seen the implication the most is with ham. A challenge we have is staying up with scientific evidence on what is good food to eat, but we're able to communicate that with schools and often volunteers who are supporting school canteens to run, in a way that is going to support them and not hinder them or create additional problems.”References https://theconversation.com/why-ban-ham-from-school-canteens-and-what-are-some-healthier-alternatives-for-kids-lunches-223341

Healthy food only makes up a fraction of what schools are serving students in canteens and tuck shops. Massey University researchers have been analysing the menu of 133 primary schools across the country. Despite the Ministry of Health implementing Food and Drink Guidelines for Schools in 2020, the study found only 12.8 percent of foods available to students are considered healthy. Lead researcher from Massey University Danika Pillay spoke to Susie Ferguson.

In this episode, we chat to author and essayist Rebecca May Johnson about what it means to bring critical ideas into the everyday. We discuss the radical potential of the recipe as a tool for performance and intergenerational exchange. We speak about the abjection of bodies by capitalist society and reclaiming pleasure as a means of feminist praxis. We discuss the isolation rendered by the privatisation of public spaces and the necessity for communal ways to gather and eat together. We chat about the ways in which theory can neglect visceral experience and the recipe as a living text which anchors us to our bodies and the world. Rebecca May Johnson has published essays, reviews and nonfiction with Granta, Times Literary Supplement, Daunt Books Publishing and Vittles, among others. She was a creative writing fellow at the British School at Rome in 2021. She earned a PhD in Contemporary German Literature from UCL in 2016.She also uses online publishing to conduct stylistic experiments: her essay ‘I Dream of Canteens' was published via TinyLetter and gained widespread acclaim, winning ‘The Browser' prize for the best piece on the internet in April 2019.

Clubs tend not to do it; marketing opportunities for club canteens are often overlooked; whether it's because they take it for granted, that they've never actually considered it specific marketing for their canteen business unit or because they think that they're not allowed to market because they are ‘just volunteers not-for-profit club'; this ep is as full of good ideas to help grow canteen income as a $4 bucket of chips!

A key part of many Danish workplaces is their unusual approach to lunch. While many larger workplaces offer Canteens smaller companies also often offer catered lunch. This is done through interesting lunch services that allow you to pay one fee and then pick and choose between 30 or 40 different restaurants at will. While some work places charge on a per-meal basis, the vast majority of Danish workplaces offer a subsidized lunch that usually costs about 360 DKK/month ($60 USD). It's worth noting that these are salary dollars and not post-tax dollars making the value an even better deal. The interesting side effect of this is that Denmark has historically had a very limited lunch restaurant culture. With many workers eating at work and students working at school, the demand for lunch venues you'd find in the UK, US, and elsewhere hasn't existed. There has, also, been a long-standing tradition of Danes taking their lunch to work, which further added to this. While there has been a surge in lunch restaurants over the last 10 years, it is a relatively new aspect of Danish culture. I delve into the topic in this episode of Denmark 101. If you're Danish hopefully you'll find this series interesting, a bit informative, and not too outlandishly offensive. If you're a foreigner coming to Denmark, I hope this helps you build upon observations and insights the rest of us had to find out the hard way. Topics that will be covered include the Danish approach to nudity, how to make Danish friends, how to meet Danes, Danish manners, and even a look at Janteloven.

In this podcast I discuss what I typically take with me in regards to gear to any Milsim Operation, as well as how I prepare for 24+ hour Operations. Below you'll find the Gear list I use, please copy, and use as you need! At a minimum I take the following in my Mountain Alice Pack with me on any field operations. Real world and Airsoft. Alice Pack (Medium): - 1 Additional Set of Utilities - 2 Pairs of socks - 2 Pair of Skivvy drawers (Underwear) - 2 Undershirts - Hygiene kit, to include toothbrush/paste/soap/shampoo/fieldtowl/under arm grease (Deodorant) Beard Oil - Poncho and Poncho Liner (MUST HAVE!, if you don't use it for anything else other then sleeping in. ) -Cold Weather Layer- Polypro underwear Tops and Bottoms (Long Underwear) (even if you don't need them pack them, made the mistake at Guernsey of pulling them out of my pack to wash them and not put them back in). - Shell Jacket (Something that is light like a wind breaker and can fit over your uniform but under your gear) - Gloves, Cold Weather and Work - Flashlight, with green/red lens, additional batteries for EVERYTHING (One flashlight in pack, one on gear) - Multi Tool (in pack or on gear) - First Aid Kit/Sewing Kit - Baby wipes non smelly - 3 days Food ( cooking utensil/pocket stove is optional but nice to have ) - Pogue Bait (Snacks, Candy, Comfort foods etc.) - Sleeping Bag (Mine is compressible to fit on the bottom of my pack. If you don't feel like bringing a sleeping bag that’s where your poncho and poncho liner come into play. remember, your going to be sleeping only for short periods and in full kit and uniform, so you wont need much to stay warm). - Additional water(Canteens or Hydration system of your choice. This is not on the one you carry on your gear, this is an Additional to that one. Never have to much water). - Additional small items you might need/want. On Person: Uniform: Utility Uniform, with Undershirt, Hat: Boonie, Ballcap Boots: Broken in! Water resistant/proof, good solid soles Socks Skivvy drawers, clean Watch Shemagh, bandanna Beard (Not Optional) Battle Belt /w following Three Primary Magazines Two Secondary Magazines IFAK Individual First Aid Kit Multi Tool Two Canteens (/w Canteen cup) Butt Pouch (More Pogue Bait, 1 MRE, mole skin, Bbs, Speed Re-loader, small additional might need) Pistol and Pistol holster Harness Chest Rig /w following 6 Primary Magazines Shotgun shell pouch Compass and Compass holder Admin pouch /w rip away map, map pens, pen&paper Additional Pouch (BB, Speed Re-loaders, for anything else) Airsoft Specific: Primary Weapon /w sling Backup Primary (Bivouac area, Gear box) Batteries, Multiple (in Additional Pouch on battle belt, Chest Rig and Alice Pack Field Charger (Bivouac area. Gear box) Pistol /w Magazine (Battle Belt) Co2 12 grams (Shotgun Pouch) BB's (Chest Rig, Battlebelt, Alice Pack) Silicone Oil/Spray (Bivouac area, Gear box) Goggles, 2 Sets (ANSI rated, full seal) Mesh Face Mask (not required but highly recommended) Dead Rag (Carry two) This is my typical packing list/gear load out. My Alice pack doesn’t stay with me. It is typically staged at HQ/CP with the rest of the squads and I operate out of my Gear. Adjust to what you have/what you think you'll need. Don't hump a three day assault pack around if you don't need to. You'll always have a fall back location I.E. your Company CP. Sleeping in the field: Pretty simple, first your going to be sleeping in the field, there is no going back to the barracks. If your squad is tasked with a defensive operations or offensive operations and its going to be during a time when you think you might get some shut eye, take your poncho liner with you, they are small enough if you have a buttpack you can stuff it in there. If you don't have a poncho liner take your shell jacket for cool evenings. If you are in the CP/HQ during sleep cycles pull out the poncho liner and rack out. Don't expect to get full 8 hours of sleep, Don't EVER take off your uniform/boots/gear. Don't EVER sleep with out your weapon in your hands. and Dont EVER let your whole squad sleep at the same time.
In this special Downstage Center, we celebrate the legendary Stage Door Canteen (a war relief effort founded by early members of the American Theatre Wing). Opened on March 2, 1942 in the 44th Street Theatre, the New York Stage Door Canteen serviced an average of 3,000 servicemen a night as a recreation center before many of the soldiers went off to war. In all, eight Stage Door Canteens throughout the United States as well as in London and Paris served soldiers. Theatrical luminaries gave of their time (as volunteers) and talents (singing, dancing) in the Canteens. Listen now as Pia Lindstrom talks with one of the original Canteen volunteers, Phyllis Jeanne Creore.
