Most times I am glad my Hubby is a livestock farmer. Yesterday was one of those days. We got to enjoy a scumpious meal at a Seed Corn meeting. The meal included home made freeze slaw, potato salad, cranberry salad, lettuce salad with the peas in it, mash potatoes and gravy, turkey and dumplings, meat loaf, ham with pineapple and papaw, and the most delightful chocolate cake dessert with cherries and very thick topping. It did not matter that we had to drive 60 miles to enjoy the meal and a very interesting meeting. As I tell friends, farmers get to eat a lot of free meals through out the year. All different kinds of companies want to say thank you for your business. How great can it be to be a farmer.
I want to introduce you to a wonderful group of ladies who want to let all know how grateful they are to the Lord. Feel free to hit the button on my side bar and visit the others. You may feel like joining and that would be great. I am grateful to the Lord for my physical life and my spiritual life.
As I was writing my post a dear friend honored me with this award and I want to thank her for the wonderful gift.

Good Morning Joyce,
Burrrr, it is cold outside here this morning as well. When I first got up at 4:30a.m. it was 21 degrees. A little while later it dropped a couple of degrees to 19 degrees. It's now back up to 22 degrees according to my computer. I know one thing, my fingers are cold and it's hard for me to type correctly. LOL. Even my cold is cold. LOL. Sounds like yall had a great time yesterday and had plenty of good food to eat. I'm curious now, what is frozen slaw and papaw? I've never heard of those before. I've never even heard of Turkey and Dumplings, but I know what that is tho. It all sounds so good this morning and warm too. I just talked to my DH and he said they will be home around noon. They won't have to leave out until around 2:00a.m. Sunday Morning. It's good that the farmers get to eat free since they do alot for our economy. "THANK YOU" and your husband for being such wonderful farmers and providing for everyone. Take care my friend and have a great day. Stay Warm. May God Bless You and Yours.
Love & Hugs,
Karen H.
Hi Joyce, you are making me hungry telling about that wonderful meal you had to drive 60 miles to enjoy. Sounds like it was well worth the drive.
Very cold temperatures in your part of the world, burrrr!!
Hi Joyce...Sounds like you had a wonderful meal and a good time too. Farming is one of the hardest jobs ever, but many rewards are there too. Thanks for promoting the Grateful Gals blogroll...we are getting new members every day! ((((hugs))))
So glad you visited! I love your blog - OMG, it's so warming :0 I am a grateful gal too, btw :) Have a blessed weekend, and again, thx for stopping by.
Joyce, I noticed your comment today on CWO's Internet Cafe about the quilt, and it occurred to me that your quilt story would make a great short story that you could write for publication. I'm sure it would inspire people. Just a thought.
Also, I'm in Indiana, too! Muncie
