WELCOME TO THE


(where our troops, allies and their families can refresh themselves)

Good morning, Everyone. Good morning

Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities.

Excuse me, but WHAT kind of sandwich is that in the thread?
THAT is NOT a hot dog.

You Are Cracker Jacks
You get a lot of delights out of life, and others are surprised by how easy it is to make you happy.
You are a creature of habit, and it's likely you've been doing the same things since you were a kid.

You are a very hard person to persuade. You make up your mind on your own.
You appreciate strangeness. You understand how difficult it is to be different.
What Baseball Park Snack Are You?

I'm a Cracker Jack alright. hehe
They sell Cracker Jacks at ball games? Who knew?
Guess it's been a while since I was at a ball game.

Anyhoo, I'm going to try to get my hellos in
before people start showing up and
come knocking on my door.
Yesterday was kind of strange
~ started off quiet, then phones, emails, knocking on door...UGH!

So I am going to shut up now (yeah right) and get going.

But, please stay right where you are.
Keep the troops and their families entertained.

The Canteen is

Come on in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, tea,
pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS

Note the package....... Cracker Jacks are now the product of Frito Lay. They are packaged in an alumanized mylar bag like chips and doritos. The package is larger than the old box. The prize is a cheesy paper sticker. The mylar package is such that the peanuts all slide to the bottom.

Cracker Jacks are found in truck stops on the end of the Frito Lay product row.

I have recently learned that a similar product found at Wilco truckstops having Stucky's brand have a similar but much more expensive product that is much much better

Either product though is great road food

Good morning, beachy...((HUGS))...lots of homework last night. Thankfully we have a full week this week. Finally time to try to get all corrections made. This morning is going to be REALLY intense trying to make the identified corrections.

It is 11 degrees at my house right now.
