Celery Soup yesterday and Cream of Celery Soup today?
We had Glazed Sweet Potatoes yesterday as well. Were you supposed to make two batches at once and reheat one today?
The Caramel Sauce recipe is attributed to Miss Parloa. Maria Parloa was the long-time cook at Appledore House, a hotel in Maine and wrote The Appledore Cook Book. She could be considered a celebrity chef and was one of the first instructors at The Boston Cooking School, as well as running her own cooking school.

I am guessing the Huntington Sauce is in honor of Ralph Huntington, who was instrumental in the creation of Back Bay (for those not local, it’s a neighborhood that was built the 19th century on what was once a tidal bay) and for whom Huntington Avenue was named.
Perhaps today’s Mashed Potatoes are made from leftovers from yesterday’s Riced Potatoes.
