My Grandmother used all of her eggs everyday by baking the best cookies & cake ever. Sometimes we would even get one fried for breakfast, but not very often.
Yes I dod remember the wax paper being used to wrap sandwiches that I had in my school lunch.

My Grandma used to put her egg money in a tin can and put that tin can under her pillow when she goes to bed. My Mom's Aunt used to put it in a hanky and tucked and pinned inside her bra.

Hey, that's interesting (all the answers)!

I always thought sandwiches wrapped in wax paper were special and tasted much better than the plastic wrapped ones.
That's interesting. I think waxed paper lets sandwiches get kind of stale. My mother gave me money for milk; I never had a thermos. And she always used white bread for my sandwiches. I hardly ever buy white bread these days. I usually buy it for specific recipes like bread pudding or strata (which I rarely make).
