Chance… you ok?

yeah Bill, grab this I got another one to bring in, Tuesday I get this call Chance

yeah Bill?

Can you whip up something as a main meal, we got all the side stuff what ya get mind Bill?

Some Mac & Cheese

ohh ok I can do that

Mac & Cheese ain’t nothin fancy with a ltttle bit of time and effort

WRONG!!!

Artisan Mac/Cheese not that hard to make

adding the most special ingredient

BACON into the mix ( drained of course)

I use Bacon grease for many things except

Sharing

Difference between making your own bacon an store bought is as follows:

these drying racks were completely covered

working still with more of the special ingredient

I fancied up the whole sheabang

Having good eyes and full knowledge of store bought BACON, I chose the proper size of throw away tins

take pride in your work right?

don’t matter what you are doin, do it right

I smoked everything for an about an hour and half

3 pans worth

figurin around 41//42 people will get a decent meal with all the side stuff at the shelter

I suppose I could have just gave Bill the 55.00 bucks plus gas instead of food, but he asked for food

While doin something useful I was smilin

” Get in here an learn cook! no self respecting woman will wanna marry you!”

like I had choice mom had me by the ear

Ma! can have one of those non self respecting Women?

way wrong thing to say

while watering a rose bush that JUST WON’T DIE at 05:30 this am watering and drinking coffee at the same

time is a time saver

always remember

it’s not the amount of time given that’s important

it’s what you do with the time you are given that is what is important anyways I heard on the radio

you buy we give

took a 15 minutes before I found out what the hell that was all about

some background:

Lafayette was inducted into the Army on March 29th, 1918 at Camp Custer in Battle Creek, Michigan. Prior to that, he was working at the Bronsema & Grisworld Livery Stable in Grand Haven and The Eagle Ottawa Tannery. He served in France where he was wounded on September 29, 1918. He was hit five times by machine gun fire while in the famous battle of “The Hindenburg Line”. He was transferred to a military hospital in Newton Abbot, England. His family didn’t hear from him for quite some time after he was wounded and he was presumed dead. Casualties were terribly high in that battle and the 27th Division suffered the second highest casualties of all the American Divisions in World War I, so they were relieved when they heard he was still alive.

Lafayette died at his home on Pierce St. December 30th, 1979 from heart failure following a brief illness. He still had a bullet in his hip from his wounds in the war.

We will always remember his five dogs following his truck as he drove over to the farm office. His help to the farm came in many ways over the years and he made a significant contribution when the farm fell on hard times financially.
