 Background Story For Full Plate Thursday
 When we were young and just starting out in life sometimes we did not have a lot of money. Most of our friends were having to stretch the dollars at the end of the month just like us. My girlfriends and I decided that we would pool our food for some of the evening meals right before payday... the last week of the month. I have some of the fondest memories from those days. We would all bring our food together and we had some great food and great fellowship. We would get the food on the table and everything ready, someone would bless the food and then the hostess would say "come fill your plate".
 Guidelines
When you link to Full Plate Thursday, you are giving me permission to use a photo or link from your Post in a feature post on this blog, on Pinterest, or Face Book Every Week, I feature many of your Recipes on the next Full Plate Thursday, and on What's For Dinner Next Week, and I pin many of your recipes to Pinterest.

 Thank You For Coming Today and Come Back Soon!

  2. Happy Belated Birthday! I hope it was wonderful and that God blesses you with many more years of love, health and happiness! :-) I, too, am so excited about the baby's birth. Two years ago my children and I got up early to see his parents get married, just as I did 32 years ago when William's parents got married.

    I am sharing my daughter's Chocolate & Nutella Cookie Caterpillars this week. They were as cute as they were tasty!

    Enjoy the rest of your week! Many blessings, Lisa

  20. Hi Miz Helen,
    Happy Birthday! I hope you've enjoyed it immensely! Did someone bake you a birthday cake? :-) (Little Prince George will remind me you from now on.)
    Today I've brought a little snack or side dish of Mustard Dill Sauce with Roasted Sweet Potatoes (GF, DF, and nut-free). You might even have your own homegrown dill weed you could use in it. I love seeing the goodies that you share from your garden.
    Have a wonderful week!
