Ep. 32: Canned Goods & Can-Do Spirit

We've talked home canning  before, and we've talked rationing and refashioning in WWII before -- now we're bringing it all together to talk about canned goods and factory fashion in 1940s Canada. As we did the last time we talked about this period, we're switching up our roles -- Steph's taking fashion this month, looking at women's factory uniforms, and Torey's taking food, talking about industrial canning and how it changed the food landscape.  What we're obsessed with in history Torey : Reading old archived newsletters and basking in the knowledge that the effort she's spent to preserve minutiae may not have been wasted Steph : Resistance Women by Jennifer Chiaverini - a tough and relevant read.
