Who Would Name A Daughter Prudence Penny?
3 June 2021
Hubby phones home to announce he is bringing the boss and his best customer. Wife Gertrude Short finds the cook has quit, ad her idea of how to cook involves coating the dog in flour. No problem! A Smith called Pete phones the local paper, and Prudence Penny shows up .

There was no Prudence Penny. It was a pen name used by the Los Angeles Times for their food editors. Here, with Smith's snarky narration, ill-conceived make-up and dyspeptic Technicolor, the audience gets treated to some household hints.
