Background Story On Full Plate Thursday
When we were young and just starting out in life sometimes we did not have a lot of money. Most of our friends were having to stretch the dollars at the end of the month just like us. My girlfriends and I decided that we would pool our food for some of the evening meals right before payday... the last week of the month. I have some of the fondest memories from those days. We would all bring our food together and we had some great food and great fellowship. We would get the food on the table and everything ready, someone would bless the food and then the hostess would say "come fill your plate".

  3. Your picture is just adorable with your tree and Max, Miz Helen. What weather we've had. I had jury duty yesterday and had to allow myself an hour to get there and prayed all the way. Thank goodness, I wasn't chosen, but had to stay in the courtroom until past 12:30 to find out.
    Thank you for hosting and enjoy being cozy and warm inside. xo
