We always sat on a chesterfield at our house when I was growing up. If we were real good mom would take us uptown and buy us some chips and gravy and a coke float or just a pop. My mom cooked on the range and the stove was where we warmed our butts after a day of sledding on the big hill.When we went for groceries, mom used a buggy to put them in and the bag boy put the groceries in bags.
