The hard work of threshing brought on big appetites. In addition to the bountiful breakfasts, lunches and dinners provided by the women of the family, between-meal "lunches" were also prepared and sent to the field, with children often serving as the couriers. The two men pictured here are enjoying a well earned lunch break. Note the large enamel coffee pot on the left, and the picnic basket for carrying the food.
