Try to avoid a tiff in the middle of your post-Thanksgiving tiffin; there is enough leftover turkey for everyone.

I’m tryin’ to reckon if’n
Michelle’s new rules for tiffin
Are just so unreal
That the kids’ noonday meal
Would be unicorn, bigfoot and griffin

My daily repast at tiffin with tea and biscuits makes for a treasured escape from work.

Lived in Tiffen, Iowa for about a year in the early 80s. Learned the meaning of the word then.

Tiffin is a small private college in northwest Ohio.

Since we had Thanksgiving at the nephew’s, we have no leftovers for tiffin. I LOVE turkey and will have to cook one tomorrow. Now, I am debating knitting patterns for my niece who desperately needs cold weather gear. She’s 19 and I barely know her so choosing the right pattern is tricky.

It may be difficult to have a peaceful tiffin near a Walmart today as anti-Walmart protesters are staging demonstrations.
