~Pasty Day~ yummy

I'm late today and its Pennys fault.. She only just

left and I hadta eat the pasty she made for me.

I had NO choice!! It was so good, I only ate half

later on I will eat the other half when its cooled,

a pasty is even better then...

My mom and gramma were the best pasty makers

in the county... Gramma and my mom came over on

a boat from Cambourne in the UK... Grandpa was a

miner in the UK and he and 2 of his brothers all

decided to come to the USA to work the mines.
The wives and children came over after the men

got settled...

Grandpa and my uncles were skilled miners so they

got to work right away in the iron mines in the upper

Penninsula of Michigan as soon as they got here.. One

of the staples of the miners in the UK was pastys...

Its a individual meat pie sorta kinda... Its good.. :-)

And my gramma made THE very best... All what's in

them is meat, potatoes and onion... I put rutabaga

in, it makes them even tastier, not every time but if

I have one I will use it... There are pasty shops all

over the UP, AND, there is a place up there that

will mail them to you!! Are they good.. Its called

Pasty Central.. http://www.pasty.com/ Ive gotten

them many times... :-)


Well I need to finish my lunch. I stopped to come

and write this so y'all don't worry.. I'm still a

most GORGEOUS WEEBLE, keep well and God

Bless...

Always, Lois ****

 "God Bless You", is my prayer today,

I'm so honored to call you "friend"

I pray the Lord will keep you safe,

until I write again.....
