Give A Penny, Get A Penny
Give A Penny, Get A Penny
Most gas stations in the South have little change dishes by the register. If you’re paying for a transaction and need an extra penny or two, you simply take one from the dish. People then reciprocate this good turn by dropping a few coins in the dish from time to time, thereby creating a community bank of sorts, based on goodwill.
So in that spirit, this is Southern Plate’s “Give A Penny, Get A Penny” page.” I dearly love positive quotes and am always scouring the web for more so I thought this would be a great place to compile all of those. I’ll post mine, you post yours, and we can all “Give A Penny” when we have one and come back to “Get A Penny” when we need one.
I’ll also draw from these quotes to include at the bottom of my posts and emails that I send out to Southern Plate readers and be sure to credit the person who provided it, so include a link to your blog if you have one.
I would consider it a personal favor if you’d take the time to share a quote of motivation or positivity in the comments section below. Quote yourself, your Mama, someone famous, or our best friend “Anonymous”, it doesn’t matter, long as you drop your penny and then come back on one of those days when you feel like you might need one yourself.
Gratefully,
Christy
My Mama always said the best things in life are free,like a true friend.
I would like to receive a mixer for my daughter, her hand mixer does not work any
more and she has 2 sons that love treets, that she gets recipes from “SOUTHERN PLATE” k
Where ignorance is bliss tis folly to be wise.
IF IT DOESN’T MAKE YOU “HAPPY”, DON’T DO IT!
My mama always told us, “two wrongs don’t make a right!”
That beats all I’ve ever seen. What does? Hamilton Beach mixers beats it all.
I love to bake, adn give it away to friends and family. Several years ago my family (6 kids) got togeather and bought me a large Stand mixer. Really nice. I used it several times adn then went back to my hand mixer. It is now worn out and I want a new one.
I am giving the stand mixer to my Grand Daughter.
I bake almost every day, and have “torn up” some great hand mixers. I have prayed for a large stand up one, but after 43 yrs. of marriage, haven’t gotten one yet………so…….I would love to win a Hamilton Beach hand mixer. Maybe it will last me another 43 years.
@ Sandy..quit praying for a stand mixer and just “tell” your husband that if he wants anymore baked goodies, he better get you one!!
