Do you put those little balls in the stew or the leaves-----like bay leaves?

File' ? ...shades-of-zydeco. That's no Sassafras, Cajun! :D

Red Bay is what that is.  I look at those little bottles with 8 or 10 leaves in them when I go to the grocery store and picture myself Rich.  Why, the woods are full of them and I come home counting my dollars. :D

Then I go out back and pick a branch, throw it on the steak and forget all about going to work.

That reminds me of a joke. ;D

This south Alabama boy had a friend who went to Chicago.  The friend wrote back and said "you gotta come up here. There's jobs everywhere and the money is growing on the trees".

"Send me some" wrote back the South Alabama boy

His friend did and after causing inflation in a small part of the town, the fellow got a bus ticket to Chicago.  He arrived and was walking down the sidewalk to look for his friend when he saw a $50 bill blowing down the street.  He started to run pick it up but hesitated and said to himself, "Naw!  I ain't going to work my first day in Chicago."  :D
