Being a Home schooling Mom I had to turn Labor day into an opportunity. ..well of course.
And I learned a few things myself.
I learned the change in the horrible work conditions was brought on by one person Peter McGuire. And that the first Union organized was National Union of Carpenters, in Chicago.
Last but not least is a traditional picnic meal for Labor day...Oh you know I was all over that.
OK I said food, I know your expecting some scrumptious vittles. And I do mean scrumptious.

Irish Stew, homemade bread and apple pie is the traditional Labor day picnic. Workers and celebrants enjoyed the first labor day on September 5, 1882.

| The feast |
And I LABORED in the kitchen all morning...with some little helpers. A blanket was laid, dishes brought out and the workers and celebrators feasted.

Then I LABORED after wards cleaning everything up. But fun was had by all...me and my little family.
