Just a place for general discussion. A place to unload whats on your mind and talk about anything - personal, health, help needed, achievements, daily highs and daily lows, theories, predictions and what have you.
Does not need to be Q related.
So I heard a long time ago , from some girls I worked with. They used to send their kids down south to spend time with grandparents during the summer months, and they would laugh about how one of them called crying because granny was cookin chitlins in the house and he thought she would spank them if they didn't eat their dinner that night. They laughed when talking about how they did not miss that particular cuisine.
That sounds very believable! That story just needs another edition “picking out your own switch”. Richard Pryor has a good skit on that. I probably ate them but don’t remember, thankfully. I do remember eating pickled pigs feet and chicken feet cooked in chicken pastry (like dumplings but flat flour dough. It’s called chicken dumplings or pastry depending on the region.) I always heard my great grandma and her sisters would fight over a hogs head. I actually saw pigs feet in a grocery store a few months ago. I’d have to mighty damned hungry to eat any of that stuff today. I understand people eating those foods. Most people in USA haven’t experienced true poverty and hunger. My grandparents were children during the depression. Times were so different than anything we can imagine.
