Good morning D-League. It's currently 42° and cloudy here in Eastern Kentucky. This afternoon will bring rain showers and a high of 55°.
Everyone stay safe on this Sunday.
As long as we don't have to hold hands to do it.
Well, You could call it stuffing if you get stuffed with it.😋
I was raised a breakfast, dinner, supper eater. In the generations before me no one in my family said the word lunch. The noon meal was as "heavy " as supper because they were blue collar workers who ate three very large meals a day.
We went on the cash system for Christmas.........we don't see our grandchildren enough to know what they like......I know the last time I was there I saw a $300 telescope up on top of the cabinet gathering dust.......still not comepletely put together yet.....circa Christmas 2015............When they lived in England it cost almost as much to send gifts as the gifts themselves cost.........cash fits all ten of them......$50ea for Chritmas in a card with a hug.......never see Grant laying around like some of the other stuff we have gave them over the years...
Morning Legionnaires!
50° this morning with a high of 60° expected with 30mph winds. In laws did not leave until 0100 this morning.
If Bengals lose today even though they would not be mathematically eliminated from the playoffs they will be historically (normal happen stance) eliminated. Don't understand how they can beat tougher teams and then lose to weaker teams. Almost as if planned.
For those traveling for Thanksgiving at this time and the upcoming days, please be careful out there.
Christmas shopping with the exception of sending cards with checks to my sons and grandkids, done. Ordered early from stores with made in USA not having to worry about stuff sitting on ships.
aaahhhhhhh (sigh of relief)
I do the same thing. A $50 bill in the Christmas card, same for birthdays. My grandkids are too high tech for me to attempt to find something they will use so it is a cash system for me as well
Grandparent farmers had dinner at mid-day, their biggest meal, and supper at supper time. Net, I think dinner is largest meal regardless of time of day & supper is in the evening. So can have dinner at supper time but not supper at mid-day.
Must be a country fried thing. I was raised for most of my child to teen life in Louisville and dinner/supper was the same thing.I was raised a breakfast, dinner, supper eater.

I think calling supper, dinner may be a midwest or northern thing. Down in the deep south it has always been supper. Same thing with the stuffing and dressing thing. Just a difference in the culture one is raised. Just another example America is not one country and has never been united. Not even in language or description of things.
Here is a picture of my daddy headed to the coal mines with his "dinner bucket". A person up north might call this a "lunch pail" Today a bucket like that could feed a family of four. And everybody would be overweight LOL
I send $400 to a family of 7 (son, DIL and grandkids) $100 to his twin. The rest is here with my wife and daughter. I now give my wife $600 a month so she can put it in stocks she is messing with so, that covers all year round gifts.
Glad to see I am giving the going rate..........the Director starts lamenting about not "buying" the kids gifts every year about now......also once they graduate from HS they are no longer on the Christmas/Birthday list.........Christmas gift giving is for the children in our lives..............we don't exchange gifts other than that........Our daughter and SIL get a cash gift but they are the only adults.........we do subsidize the ones in college if'n they maintain 3.0 or above....$100 a month and a extra $200 for a 4.0 on midterms and semester finals........I have been characterized as a grinch..........more than once........
That seems rather odd to me though. As hard working as farmers are I would think the largest meal at midday would weigh heavy on you. On the other hand the fact that working that hard and long days I guess you need the energy to complete the day so...ehh.Morning folks. Rainy here and a lot warmer than the last few days.
Growing up it was breakfast, dinner and supper. Breakfast was big with bacon or sausage or ham, eggs, gravy and biscuits. Dinner in mid day was the biggest mean and supper often was left overs from Dinner and if necessary added to it. My dad and often my mom would eat a go-to-bed glass of buttermilk and leftover cornbread.
Dinner is mid day folks.
It was good seeing Austin.
We took a lot of time for Dinner. My dad would also take a nap before going back out. He said he avoided the hottest time of the day.
Cornbread/buttermilk and lettuce and onions were two of dad's favorite things to eat. Now of all the things in the garden, onions was the one thing I never grew a fondness for. Now I can eat them cooked into things, but I can't stand them raw.Morning folks. Rainy here and a lot warmer than the last few days.

I was talking to my wife who was born and raised a little east of Richmond. That was the big city to them. She had 10 brothers and sisters and her mama got up every morning at 5:00 AM and made two huge pans of biscuits. 24 to a pan, 48 total. With that she fried either chicken, pork chops, bacon or sausage. One of those was the meat and any left overs would be packed for the kids dinner. For supper there was always cornbread and usually pinto beans. She would add some fresh vegetables from the garden fry up some more meat. This was served with sweet milk and buttermilk was a treat if she had time to churn some up. One thing they did not have was sweet tea. We had that two or three times a day and there always was a fresh jug of it on the countertop.
I am happy for you, you are so fortunate. It has been many years since our family could do that. My daddy died in 1990 and we kept things going until my mother passed away in 2007. Now we still get together but I am the old man on the top of the mountain now and my siblings celebrate with their family and younger generations. My brother lives 250 miles from me and my sister about 850. The cycle of life.
Thanks Sawnee. Yes, my family has been blessed with the health of my parents. 67 years of marriage and counting.
The Director makes some really good Chow Chow..........and you can't mention Chow Chow without Corn Relish..........I could make a sandwich out of the two of them......maybe on some rye bread.......@Gassy would enjoy that............Speaking of meals, my wife got me hooked on this and now anytime we have beans, we have to have some on hand.
Why did you have your hands on the table and what were you fiddling with?We always called it morning meal, afternoon repast and evening feast.
Dirty fork. Tough to get good help in this environment.
Most mornings my breakfast is cheese and onion. It is stupid but I love raw onions. Of course I love them cooked also.
My wife calls it foraging when I go looking around to graze. I do a lot of foraging just before dinner/supper. She gets pissed if I eat too much before hand. She is afraid I will not eat dinner/supper. Sometimes I don't. One time close to lunch time at work one of my co workers caught me looking around for snacks and sent the picture to my wife who also worked on post. No caption just a picture and ask her did she know what I was doing. Her response was: "Looks like he is foraging for food". My co worker just laughed and then sent a email back asking her how she knew. She told him that was the normal look when I went foraging.
Sorry I missed your call. My phone was in my truck. I do that often.
Probably not as stupid as me loving onion rings, but not raw onions. I can handle onions if they're cooked, just not raw for some reason.
Where's Lord Grantham & Carson?We always called it morning meal, afternoon repast and evening feast.
Not as obvious as fiddling w/o hands on the table.
I was a red head so this is a cartoon that I like:

Dang, grilled ham and cheese sammich sounds good.
I saw some rumblings about that last night. Wonder if it was just lucky speculation or if the word was out right after the game.Just saw where Florida fired Dan Mullen as coach.
Dan Mullen out as Florida football coach | Fox News
Florida was ranked as high as No. 10 in the AP poll this season but have been on a downturnwww.foxnews.com
It was good but it didn't get grilled. I did fry the ham first though. I had 2 hot dog buns left so I used those. Mixed up some kind of hot sauce I found in the fridge with some mayo to dip the sammy in. Not bad. Very hot! Washed it down with a cold beer in a bottle.
I was hoping for earlier as well. Makes for a long day.
