refreshments ...

Our meetings are held upstairs from our local Alano Club.
There's stuff down there.
Somtimes, people bring hard candy, gum and stuff for those who can't afford to buy anything downstairs.
I'm planning a cookie bonanza ... on the next payday weekend.

Money is very very tight in this town, and has been for years since the closing of several mines. While some are still with the mines, and doing well, the majority is out of work, or coping with low - wage jobs and the personal cash for contributions like cookies and donuts just isn't there.

Sharon, if you want to make a cornbread - I'll private you my addy and you can UPS it here! That would be a HOOT!
LOL!
These folks wouldn't know what to do with something like that. They're all the time telling me 'it must be a southern thing' when I ask why don't we do something or the other up here... hee, hee.
I told them that everything in the south happens around food.

everything up here happens around the heater. Or in a bar.
