While eating in a restaurant on Friday night I got to thinking about when Aunt Bee was shown eating in a restaurant. I can only come up with three times. One was when she and Emma were eating lunch in the drugstore when the shoe salesman came in. Then she was seen eating spaghetti with Professor St. John. The only other time I recall her eating in a restaurant was when Goober took them out to the fancy restaurant in Raleigh. Now of course Aunt Bee bought the Chinese restaurant, but we never actually see her eating there. Andy talked about taking her and Opie to the Chinese restaurant in Mt. Pilot but we never saw them there.
Now as I recall from my own time in the sixties, eating out was a very special treat, and I actually do not recall ever going out to eat in a restaurant with my family. In high school we would go to some of the cafes for cokes and French fries, but never for a full meal with my family. Any thoughts??? -- Ken Anderson The Mayberry Guru 2906 May Street Eau Claire, Wisconsin 54701 www.themayberryguru.com www.mayberryreflections.com _______________________________________________ WBMUTBB mailing list [email protected] http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
