December 29: National Pepper Pot Day, and Tick Tock Day.

👨‍🍳National Pepper Pot Day! The winter of 1777 – 1778 was brutal. The Continental Army was fighting for the newly formed country of the United States of America during the Revolutionary War. As they were camped at Valley Forge on December 29th, 1777, George Washington asked the army’s chef to prepare a meal that would boost their morale and warm them. The chef rounded up some peppercorn, small bits of meat, tripe and other ingredients and called it Pepper Pot Soup, (also known as Philadelphia Pepper Pot Soup). The meal was well received, and it was nicknamed “the soup that won the war.”

⌛️Tick Tock Day reminds us only two days are remaining in the year. Do you have any unfinished business or something big you want to accomplish before the year ends, well now is the time to finish up as the clock is ticking! Tick Tock Day was created by Thomas and Ruth Roy at Wellcat.com.

That pepper pot soup my hubby calls hunter stew, you hunt in the cabinet finding thing to throw in a pot together. I'll take a pass on it if you don't mind. I'm not that hungry! (I know there are people starving all over the world and I shouldn't be so picky and if I was as hungry as they be I would be more than glad to have it.) The only thing I would like before the year is up is to be totally over whatever this is I have. This feeling good one day and wore out the next is old. About like having a FWL in the game.

No Ef it wasn't really coal it was chocolates. It was one of those meant to be funny gifts. I'm sorry for the confession. Sometimes I don't explain thing good enough.

I know about the wifi going on and off and no electricity. I swear if a bird lands on our electric line our electric goes out. Although it has gotten a lot better since the electric company had the trees and anything else trim back from the lines.

Sending warm hugs!🐶💕❄️💕

Pssst, Bixby tomorrow!
