60+ year old thread.

Cornbread in glass of milk. Popcorn while watching wrestling over at my grandparents.

Things always tasted better at Grandmoms house. Tried the same foods I liked then and they just don't taste the same. For any folks near the Morgantown PA area at the intersection of rt.23 and rt896 south, there is a supermarket called Shady Maple that packages a lot of there own foods. I always get the white hominy grits. They are the best. The buffet in the building behind the supermarket is good as well.

 

Great memories! My wife likes cornbread in milk.

 

My dad taught me cornbread in milk as a kid. And, left over grits in milk. Real grits, not instant.
My great grandfather, on my fathers side, was born in Kentucky.

We also learned to eat what was put on the table, not a pick and choose cafeteria. Never thought about it any other way.
The only thing we did not have to eat was the liver and onions my mom liked.

 

We all had to eat that.

 

Shit was rough. Those and fried up chicken gizzards. Yeah, we ate those. And stew made with old pumpernickel bread. Dammit. I am still kickin' and my family we never went hungry.

 

Dont know what it was called, like a turnover but filled with mostly green onions, bacon grease drizzled over it.

Happy belated Thanksgiving boys. Hope everyone had a good day with family and friends.

 

Hi Susan. Hope you had a good Thanksgiving.

 

I didn't know being over 60 made me an old timer. Badge of honor I suppose. Greetings from Idaho.

 

That part is just a perspective thing.

 

Welcome to the porch Denny. Where I am looking, you are a youngster. Turned 71 in June. Some youngsters do stop in occasionally to check up on us old folks. Enjoy the thread.

 

Howdy from an old Eagle Keeper, Eglin and Bitburg.

Was thru Idaho in July. Grangeville, Bonners Ferry.

Howdy Warhawk. I appreciate all that you “Eagle Keepers” did. I NEVER had a bad jet in 20 years. I’ve never worked with a finer group of individuals than I did in the USAF. I sure do miss it. McChord, Elmendorf and Mountain Home myself.

 

Thanks Duane. Yep, we call it Idafornia now. California is a great state......or at least it used to be (especially the late 70’s/early 80’s). Still some awesome folks there, Beautiful State I just have a hard time with a lot (not all) of the inhabitants.......and the politics. That’s all I’ll say about that.

 

It was an honor to wear the Eagle Keeper patch on my uniform.

 

ABSOLUTELY and it was an honor for me to be associated with such a world class group of individuals. Greatest jet ever made.

 

Same here, but I am stuck in So Cal cause grandkids ....


And that's all I will say about THAT.

 

I passed through a lot of Idaho in late June. Beautiful.
