  1. For Breakfast, Dinner and Supper the people long ago used chiefly of milk and potatoes. Potatoes were eaten at every meal. They had no china cups and saucers long ago but they used bowls and tin saucepans and timber vessels called piggins. The women used to make a cake with potatoes, it was called Stampy Bread. Six potatoes were washed very clean and then grated, a small supply of flour and soda and sour milk were mixed with it and when baked it tasted well.
