WELLL! They Stuck Together!!
Christmas always has dinners here and dinners there from church's to homeless centers. I like to go to all of them. The food is free, delicious and someone has to eat it. So, I gladly volunteer!
I went to our church luncheon for Seniors and Senors. Since I qualified for both I went with a very empty stomach.
The line formed and I am kinda slow in my old age so I went last. The ham was sliced generously, the turkey was all white meat BUT I like dark meat too.
The side dishes were yummy yams with crumbled somethingorother on top and they were delicious. The green beans were the usual but Hey! let's have some anyhow. The olives were great and I wolfed down my favorites. The ones stuffed with that red veggie. I forget what they're called. Well, long story short, there was much more.
I had my plate piled high. The Senior ladies were great in their urging. Have some more of this, have some more of that, there's plenty. So, since I am a good hungry gluttony Samaritan I obliged.
Then, thanks to Santa's song here was my take on what I saw next, "What suddenly appears but a huge slab of meatloaf"! Yabos, could I? Should I? My plate was stacked already. So I did what any kind and thinking glutton would do. I chose to wait!! In my plate of "second helping" I had a large wedge of meat loaf.
THEN!!! As if that wasn't enough I passed the dessert table! It was loaded with pie!! I only like 2 kinds of pie, hot or cold!!! I'm glad I was saving a little room.
Finally!! I made it to the dessert table and I had a small piece of lemon somethingorother and a small wedge of pumpkin pie. I did what any good glutton with manners would do. I overlooked the chocolate cake! Tomorrow when we have morning coffee at church I will bet One Gazillion Dollars that the left over cake and pie will be there ready for eager consumption by gluttons like me!
For my Christian brothers and sisters have a Blessed Happy Birthday Jesus Day! For everyone else have a Happy Holiday!
No I don't think it's too early to wish anyone blessings and happiness. It should be done on a regular basis daily!

Hence, my title!!!
Sounds great, I love olives (think it's the pimento pepper inside)and all that gluttony and free food could be enough to turn one into a churchgoer...
Well, almost but not quite! When I was a child I was sent to Sunday school but kept getting told off for staring at the stained glass windows, far more colourful and interesting than what the teacher was saying!
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
i know what you mean about those starving kids. If we only had a way to export food that we Americans deem unmarketable because they don't "look right".
But war, extortionj, politics and all kinds of stuff gets in the way.
Thank you for your blessings and I will answer you what I like to say because I am fighting "political correctness".
I wish you a Blessed Jesus Birthday to you!
Have a great Christmas Pal
DOOOOOOOD!!
And the same to you, my amigo!!
And a merry little christmas to you also
Glad you had a feast...Happy Holidays to you...
Sounds like you had a feast, and enjoyed yourself,
The good food, Christmas baking, I think are the part of the Christmas season I enjoy the most. The church suppers, bake sales, neighbors wives sending over baking and pastries make it that much more of a special time of year,
