After all these years of my never ending cursade I have found out why there are really no grits in the great state of Maine. No Wild Hogs. :D
Now are you educationing me ??? You tellin' that that (Tom) is how grits is spred. :P
I know it's a conspiracy theory, but I have never see a Wild Hog in Maine. There has been a few people that wanted me to chase thier hogs,because they got out of the pen,I said nope,I ain't a chasing. I kinda think the two MIGHT be linked.
must not have bacon. What a desolete country that would be.
Oh we have bacon,just no Wild bacon. Lots of people raise pigs and hogs. They are all in a pen,building. Non running free,to roam the country side. In fact,you can buy piglets at the local hardware store,just like chicks,order form and all.
Ah, but we had Maine wild hogs up here. They was the neighbor's hogs (in Maine) that free ranged in our grain and potatoes all summer. We got free hog that fall in the freezer as did other relatives. :D
Wars were fought over hogs didn't ya know? ;D

Deep down, way down, I sense a real desire you must have for the love of grits ;D It seems you have hidden these feelings for way to long, it's not all so bad, get some Tennessee Pride sausage or your favorite and make you a pot of grits, You can do it while no one is around just in case you have a smiley_lit_bulb, we will welcome you in :D
Be careful, Swamper, we have a few excess troops available.

Ain't no cursing here, just lots of laughs, some folks don't like onions, and some folks don't like cheese, some of which is an allergy problem. For me, to chat about likes and dislikes is just fun, nothing more.. Thank God no one has attacked gravy, we all know this is another important part of the table fair,
Maybe Dr. Suess really meant Green Ham and Grits instead of Green Eggs and Ham, ya think?
Suess was born in Springfield, MA. He would have escaped grits indoctrination as a small child. :)
Ya gotta have the Grits so the Hogs will be fat. :D
Dave Shepard,thank you,I can not be everywheres.
I've got your back in this never ending Battle of the Grits.
That's funny.
We are strong in numbers. ;D
What about the collards and green peppers? :D
Collards are good!
Ray's not a greenie. Cheese and steak is his diet, so he says. :D
And jelly beans. 8)
Someone forgot bread. ;D
And that's the white baker's bread, that kind that binds good. :D
Any kind of bread suits me. ;D
You mean greens? time for greens! a liitle pork, ah, spring in the south.

You sound like that Russian Pooten guy. :D :D :D
What did that Russian guy say about a bomb?? :D
Hey, Ray, how's the progress on the oatmeal launcher coming along?
The snow and cold is slowing me down some.
I really liked the word Cursade. So appropriate
Ray has a secret Grits fixation. There is help for that.
I honestly believe Ray smiley_love GRITS.......he just won't come out of the closet. :D
Now I THINK grits is made out of corn?? If I am correct on that,than it is not in my 3 tier of eating. Bread,meat and cheese is my staple diet and keeps me cutting wood all day mighty fine.
TOO GREEN FOR ME.
Spoken kinda in a loud voice. Just like PIE for breakfast. ;D
I have absolutely nothing a matter with someone eating a product that I would not eat. I do not eat vegetables.
I was at a Thanksgiving dinner and a woman beside was bound and determined that I was going to eat some vegetables, She even had the gall to take a spoon and try to flop some in my plate. :o About ¾ way through of all dishes being passed around,with not hardly even looking at them,and having her tell me how I need and really should have some. My patience were getting mighty thin and no business of being polite was working with her,I told her,If it dont,sh$% and walk,then I don't eat it. That stopped her in her tracks on the spot. She was mighty quiet the rest of the meal to me. Mission accomplished. :)
:D Ray is correct them there Grits ain't fit for Man nor Beast.... Steak and Potatoes Diet here. :D
You Northern Boys must eat high on the hog (Old Sayin').
Grits is a filler,exactaly as rice/beans/potatos/yams/pasta/and any localy grown veg. that grows well in the local soil and weather conditions.
I eat them all and if not local I import them.Only thing I wont eat is Fat/grissle
and Sea Bugs. :D
Jim
Whoa whoa whoa..... don't go mixin' Potatos and gr--s in the same line or paragraphe..... Bad things will happen, really really bad tings.
isawlogs,I am right behind ya. But I really don't think you need me. You are doing a mighty fine job.
Jeff told me he was eating ice cream, but we all know ice cream isn't made over the stove and served on plates. ;D

I need your help.... it seems as if GRITS has made it up to these parts.... :o even worse my mrs. just tried feeding it to me with my supper. :o :o If I can figure out how to get the pic off my phone I can prove it to ya..... what am I gonna do now that they've got her corrupted???
Run Forest RUN.......... :o :o :o
I treat them DanG grits the same way I treat a pile of DanG veggies. As long as it's not on my plate,well I guess either one could be heaped on my plate. But what I mean to say as long as I don't have to eat either one of those DanG things,I really don't care what someone else wants to shove into thier mouths. As long as they don't bump thier gums about how good it is. ::)
All women has to have at least one fault. I guess her eating the grits will be hers. I really don't see how it could be any worse for you for her to have a fault like that.
I must tighten the reins at the border in Kittery with my never ending cursade. Thank you for the warning, carry on.
drobertson. Gravy was supposed to be another of the major food groups but somehow it got left out.

And Sister Mary Margaret has not forgotten you either. She prays for you at mass every morning. Then she goes back to the convent and has her breakfast........ eggs........bacon.......toast..........coffee...........AND GRITS!!
One thing that is a fact, you can not convert the stubborn and contrary. Because if dad, grandpa or great grandpa stated it, it's set in stone. :D 8)
The Sisters and the Fathers can eat all the grits and veggies they want. Just don't tell me how good it is. I know better.
Swampdonkey,I bet my Father would of ate grits. He liked everything. And do mean everything. My Mother was just like him,eat anything. Greens picked right out of the fields.And for all I know,when he was in Fort Riley,KS he might of had grits there. I betcha if they was in the chow line,he would of ate some.
Some don't need tell'n, they are stubborn and contrary on their own. That ought to about cover it. :D
