Sandwiches and Housewifery

 Welcome to Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4!
November 3rd is both national sandwich day and national housewife's day.
In the 1950s working married women outnumbered working single women , In a US  population of a little over 161 million, over  9 million married women worked, while only 5 million single women had jobs.
The Dagwood sandwich  based on the Chic Young comic 
" Dagwood", became very popular and men made them for themselves, the bigger the better.  
Dagwood made his own sandwiches!






1. What is your favorite sandwich ?

2. Do you have a favorite Sandwich shop?  We all know that soup and a sandwich is a great lunch but do you ever eat sandwiches for breakfast or supper?





3. Growing up did your mother , grandmother, aunts have a job as well as being a housekeeper?

4. According to the United Nations, unpaid domestic labor is the number one most important driver of the entire global economy. 
78% of women shoulder all the domestic and child caring labor as well as holding down full or part tme jobs.  Without women the global economy would fail.
Did you juggle a family and a job ?
