26 Dec 1944, Barbara Anslow's diary

Submitted by Admin on Mon, 04/16/2012 - 19:43

Spent morning with Sheila, Peggy, Audrey etc. at St Stephens arranging the toys we'd made for RC social and labelling them. Social went off very well, with tableaux, a choir in which Mabel sang; and the great cake, baked by Father Meyer and to which all RCs had contributed tiny amounts of ingredients.

In evening, Mabel, Yvonne Blackmore, George Sanders, Eric MacNider, Clifton and myself had a party in Clifton's room ((he shared an amah's room with another fellow)).   We had too much to eat - a terrific chow-fan, George's special congee, and a pudding with sauce.  I couldn't move for ages after the meal.
