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


I love crockpots and the design of the one you’re giving away is fantastic! I recently told a young friend who’s just moved into her own apartment about the value of having a crockpot. It’s so great to come home to something cooking that smells so good it could fool anyone into believing that someone has been slaving in the kitchen all day! It’s an energy saver and a time saver. What could be better than that? A friend introduced me to your website….it’s great!

Would love to fix meals in this lovely crockpot. It would also match my red and white kitchen with hens and roosters scattered around! Thanks and have a great day!
If anyone needs this crockpot I do. I am wanting to start using a crockpot to make lunch/dinner. I am not a cook & it seems I burn food when using the oven top or oven. I under cook in the oven. From what I’ve looked at you just throw the ingrediants in the crockpot & forget about it for hours!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m keeping my fingers crossed…..love your website!
