Playing with Matches

Yesterday one of the characters in the April book tried to brew tea in a setting of the Midwest U.S. in the 1850's. But would the character have had access to matches to light a fire to brew the tea? How much more difficult it must have been to wait for a fire to be lit, to even find something like a match to light the fire. All the while wearing a Colt, not even a Beretta or a Glock, stuck in the belted waist band of a fitted dress.
Maybe the character should have been placed into more modern times with ready electricity, wearing suspenders, in a safer environment that did not require a firearm, and with ample free time to dye Easter eggs.

  1. Nice coffee maker. Another modern "perk" unavailable to the fitted dress set.
