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


A full belly is a full mind.
This is like my granddaughters party –open to everyone and totally awesome, like that ice cream !! and that juice !!
The website is like our homes used to be….sharing memorable good food and making wonderful memories to pass down to our family….wonderful words of wisdom and stories you could listen to forever.
LIFE is like a vacuum, it sucks!!!
Only if the owner turns on the “Suck Switch”. How about, “life is like Mardi Gras, It parties. or something positive like that. You control your life. Not some “Higher Being”. You. If you require an instruction manual to learn how to function normally in society, There are a bunch of religious instruction manuals out there chock full of rules and regulations on how you supposedly can make life “Not Suck”., Other wise remember that life does not suck, the person that owns the life makes his own life suck. My life is pretty cool and I don’t need an instruction manual to keep it “Not Sucking”. P.S. As Donald Sutherland said in Kelly’s Heroes “Always with the negative Vibe’s”. Also, try to go with the song, “Don’t worry, be happy”. it work’s for me.
Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.
Stand by your principles, even if you stand alone.

The hush pupplies look wonderful. Usually my family eats them out but know I just might have to cook some. Thanks for letting us know about this company and their products.
