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
If you’re looking for spiritual advancement, then examine your own life and see how you could be a better person with what you already know about life. And then just do the next right thing. And keep on doing it.
I always giggle when I read what you say regarding something being from scratch…so when I saw this quote I just had to submit it:
If you wish to make an apple pie truly from scratch, you must first invent the universe. ~Carl Sagan

I received my cookbook yesterday and I am so excited about it.I called my friends from Florida to West Virginia sharing my joy.I love the pictures and the instructions are so easy.I love how the recipes have pictures of the ingredients that are used with the recipe.That is totally awesome!!! Thank you Christy for making my days in the kitchen easier and worthwhile being there.

Many people walk in and out of our lives, but true friends leave footprints in our hearts.
