Interesting Facts from the 1500s
Most people got married in June because they
took their yearly bath in May and still smelled pretty good by
June. However, they were starting to smell, so brides carried a
bouquet of flowers to hide the body odor.
Baths consisted of a big tub filled with hot
water. The man of the house had the privilege of the nice clean
water, then all the other sons and men, then the women, and
finally the children with babies last. By then the water was so
dirty you could actually lose someone in it; hence the saying “Don’t
throw the baby out with the bath water.”
Houses had thatched roofs...thick straw, piled
high, with no wood underneath. It was the only place for animals
to get warm, so all the dogs, cats and other small animals, mice,
rats and bugs lived in the roof. When it rained, it became
slippery and sometimes the animals would slip and fall off. Hence
the saying “It’s raining cats and dogs.”
