Now that Valentine's Day has come and gone, its time to take a look at the other ephemera from Leta Ray's scrapbook. Just to update you, I found Leta Ray's book in an antique store. It is mostly full of valentines, graduation announcements, wedding invitations and thank you notes. Leta Ray graduated in 1958 from a small Oklahoma community where she appears to have been well loved. This packet of sugar came from Beverly's in Oklahoma City which is famous for its Chicken in the Rough. I'm not sure, but I think it was on 23rd and Classen in 1956 when she visited. That location was recently razed to make room for a Walgreen's. Beverly's is now at N.W. Expressway and Penn and is our favorite breakfast-time greasy spoon. If you go, be sure to try the biscuits and gravy, and you may want a side order of grits.
