Three Sisters, Original Folk Painting by Maryland Folk Artist Sharon Esther Ascherl

The three Workinger sisters all married local, young men, and all of them still live on the farm that has been in their family for generations. Every afternoon, before the older children come home from school, the sisters meet at their mailboxes and decide whose house they will meet at for their afternoon coffee break. Usually the decision is based on which sister just took a freshly, baked pie or cake out of her oven to enjoy with the coffee. This little reprieve from their daily tasks is much looked forward to by the sisters and their little ones who have a good time playing together.
