20、were poor, and we lived in the countryside in Portland. Dad had two jobs and Mom was disabled, but that didnt stop them from heading into the Cascade Mountains several times a year. Our clothes were old and worn and our food was usually cheap and simple. However, we were always satisfied with our ho
21、t chocolate, which was made in a traditional way handed down from my grandmother to my mother. There was no store to buy anything we needed. We just had powdered cocoa in our camp.
