[Jolly Amaranto]

My Mom was very traditional, stay at home type. However we did go out occasionally. When we lived on Okinawa in the late 50s, we ate at the officer's club on Kadena AFB about once a month. Sometimes we would go into Koza and eat either Chinese or Japanese. No English menu and no silverware while you sat at a low table on a mat on the floor. I learned to use chop sticks real fast.
