Background Story For 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".

    Hi Miz Helen, thanks again for hosting. I hope your holiday will be warm and tasty. I shared my new favorite Carrot Cake Muffins. My naughty basset hound thought he'd help himself, but luckily he only got one during the photo shoot. Merry Christmas to your family and hugs to little Max.
