LOL I love the Texas mentality!!!
“I’m not broke or poor, I’m between fortunes”
11 years there and learned that well. :-)
Thanks! I am told the Texas mentality offends some. I try to be nice about it. The Alamo is drilled into us from birth and to this day the original John Wayne version of the movie can pick me up from anything.
Only a handful of those guys at the Alamo were actually born in Texas. They came here from all the other good states. (and some other countries) But, they had a dream before MLK was ever thought of. A dream they thought was worth dying for. For me, my life is about end results that are worth dying for. My God, my family and my country. I am not fool enough to think that's only a Texas attitude, but we do soak up a lot of the "Alamo mentality" when we're kids. If it's worth doin' it's likely worth dyin' tryin' to get there.
OH! I got my cantaloupe soakin’ under some sugar now. I’m gonna let it sit for 24 hours and then make jelly drivin’ by the seat of my pants. I’ll let ya know if it works. This is how I came up with my really good herbed wine jellies so I’m at least hopeful I’ll get it right after a few tries.
