The story behind Virginia’s Hot-dish from aunt Emily (Nana Marges’ sister): Virginia was a U of Minnesota graduate friend of your uncle Bob and aunt Dorothy. Your mom and dad and aunt Dorothy and Virginia would gather often on a Friday night for supper and parlor games. The evening began with sharing supper, which was usually Virginia’s casserole, and then the gaming of various sorts (most often ending in the craziness of a charade type game) would ensue. Lots of hilarity and fun shared with all. Roger and I were a part of those gatherings when we lived in St. Paul from 1965 to 1970.
