The Christmas tree (and I) made it up the basement steps with no mishaps. I got the lights on the tree working, too!
Figured out how to change the batteries in the electronic door lock on the shop so that’s working again. The locksmith showed me how when he changed the locks & codes the day we closed on the house almost 2 years ago so I sort of remembered how to get started & it was easy after that :-)
Bought some scrapple today ... we’ll see how that goes. It sure looked good when I saw it on someone’s plate at the local diner.
I had fried SPAM for Brunch along with scrambled eggs, so who am I to judge? LOL!
My ex always told me of his ‘horrifying trials’ on the farm. His Mom, widowed, married a widowed Farmer who had 6 kids of his own, and took on her four boys as well. Pretty sure that was ONE reason she was so attractive to him, as a Farmer; free labor! He had 5 boys, one girl.
So, he went from being a City Kid to a Farm Kid with NO idea what that meant. Absolutely none!
He would tell me of them hand-hoeing the soy beans in the hot summer sun and then lunch would be delivered and it would be a Head Cheese Sandwich, LOL!
(Head Cheese is the LESSER cousin of Scrapple...)
