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".
Thank you so much for the feature, Miz Helen! Your mother's divinity looks divine. My grandmother made it every year, but I don't have the recipe -- I'll have to try yours! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy to visit! Thanks for hosting another awesome party, hope your week is going well! I've never tried to make or eat divinity but your mother's recipe looks so pretty! Pinning for later, thanks for sharing!

We are so glad you enjoyed our Winter Squash Hash! Thank you so much for hosting :) We hope your week is amazing!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! My grandmother used to make divinity every year around the holidays. Such a great memory! Thank you for featuring my Old Fashion Snowball Cookies. I can't remember a Christmas without them in our house.
ReplyDeleteYour spicy pecan custard pie and the divinity look so good, Miz Helen. My mom used to make seafoam, which is like divinity, but with brown sugar. Thanks for hosting your fun party. Stay warm tonight!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for adding some of my cranberry apple sauce to your red plate! Tis the season for lots of tasty treats, I can't wait to fill my plate!
ReplyDeleteYour divinity looks beautiful. And to have the recipe in your mother's handwriting is a priceless treasure! My husband's mother made it every Christmas -- I don't have the touch :-(
ReplyDeleteOh my - what a lineup! Everything looks scrumptious. Would love to drop by and sample some of your divinity. =) Thanks for hosting another great party.
ReplyDeleteCranberry applesauce sounds really good! Happy Holiday Season-enjoy:@)
ReplyDeleteI love family recipes like your Mother's Divinity! Thank you for sharing it, Miz Helen. This week I've brought my Mincemeat and Brandy cake to the party - it's a quick, easy, lighter alternative to traditional fruit cake. Thank you for hosting and hope you have a lovely weekend!
ReplyDeleteThank you for hosting, have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteThanks for featuring my Gingerbread Bites!!! Hope you have a good week!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend!

Thanks for the party, Miz Helen! Have a good weekend!
ReplyDeleteMiz Helen, I've never made divinity, and here I am all about the classics! Thank you for hosting. I'm going to start my hop with the post about caffeine.
ReplyDeleteI made microwave divinity last week for the first time and it is HEAVENLY....so so easy and I don't think the weather makes a difference like the old fashioned way of cooking it. Your moms recipe sounds great.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for hosting the party!
