Washingtons domestic life and dining customs described
An 18th century account details Washingtons routine from breakfast to late supper. Guests wore formal attire, grace was spoken, and dinners lasted about two hours. The table featured three courses, then nuts and fruit. Public figures like Hamilton and Steuben dined with him, while the Life Guard trained and political financiers discussed Treasury woes. Casual social events included a rare ball by Mrs Jonas, and levees were common though frugal, with apples and nuts for poorer guests.
