In the last post the first pic of us at dinner shows us with the napkins around our neck. We ate at Christianna Campbells. A period correct restaurant. It is great and the workers play the roles well. This was George Washington's favorite restaurant and he loved seafood so they serve mostly seafood.
Now on to the napkins. Way back when they did not wash their clothes very often so when they ate they would put their napkin around their necks so that when /if they dropped food their clothes would stay clean.
Now you know the rest of the story. LOL
