the next person's family always ate dessert after the evening meal
(Speaking of 'rubbers' which covered the shoes when it rained.....my dad always wore them, and apparently my mom did all his shopping, because after she died he went into a shoe store and told the young clerk that he wanted to buy some 'rubbers'.
