Sleeping With Cats
“Immediately we brought our Siamese kitten home. We were on the top floor of a yellow brick building with a parking lot and garages behind, a six-room apartment: one bedroom we shared, one was his study and one was mine. The rooms were large, light and airy. Robert announced that he would give me five years to establish myself as a writer, because the amount of money I could bring in was negligible and not worth the bother. I was very grateful and worked harder than ever at the marriage. I wante...d him to be pleased with his choice.
What he did want was a comfortably appointed apartment—but not with much expenditure—and a gourmet cook. We furnished the apartment mostly out of Sunday want ads. I had six cookbooks by now. This was my period of great bread. I was home and I enjoyed the kneading, the rising, the entire process. I made challah, rye breads, cinnamon swirls, whole wheat, raisin bread, Swedish orange rye: if the cookbook gave the rule for it, I baked it.
