My mother is Acadian and could smack me from a room away, so I’d agree.

Aw thanks! I’m a huge book nerd. It was like free gold for me.

Right?! I would have had my brother get 2 #31s and eat one for me. That used to be our thing - I’d come up to hang out with him at his music store, and go get 2 of them, and we’d hang out and chow down. I hope they get a stand-alone place!

Yeah, whenever I come up to visit, they’re the only reason I go in the mall.

I worked at that Ruby Tuesday’s for a long time. Used to steal the coverless paperback books Borders threw away in the dumpsters when we were tossing the trash!

Same! #31, no crab Rangoon, sub chicken teriyaki.

I was just talking to my brother (small business owner in PI) about this, and he said he went last weekend and it was a ghost town inside. I’m gonna miss that awesome Chinese food! I love that family there, they’re awesome.

Ok, Elsa.

You’ve got a license to chill.

Thank you! GNU Terry Pratchett ❤️

Redwings last (if you want someone from a lumber mill’s opinion). Tried LeHigh because they sent a truck to our mill - they lasted a little over a month. Learned real quick the Vimes’ theory of boots. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boots_theory

I lucked out - it’s in the international section of Walmart here in Michigan.

Apparently. All I know is there was always a huge stock pot in the fridge, and we’d just scoop out a bowl, microwave it, hit it with the seasoned salt, and chow down.

Yeah, I’ve been to a few churches in the Bangor area - they love the verses where you get to judge, skip the ones about helping your fellow man.

Just said this same thing further up. Hated it growing up. So I make it my own way now, and my kids lick the plate clean. No thanks to creamed corn.

Fuuuuck, I hated the creamed corn. I make it with mixed veggies now, or peas and carrots. Might not be original, but it’s good! And 2 packets of brown gravy mix.

Ok, my buddy’s dad, old County trapper, he fed us on this stuff our whole lives. He died a few years back, but sent me this in messenger and I’ve saved it for years. Here you go - one to guide ya, one to let you know we’re not far behind, Snuffy. “sorry for slow reply i just got new puter ant internet back......2 lbs hamburge 2 pounfs elbows....half orange size oion a green pepper ,,,,can black olivas... 2 cans tomato soup,,,, and preago of ur teaste ,,, i have leave out toad stools becuz mattt allerget to em,,,,get big pot and fry pan ... chopup oions and green peppers and black olives to teaste,,,fry tilll golden then put buger in fry that ,,, start elbows ,,, after drain addd soup and preago,,,, drain oil off buger add to elbows and soup ,,,, next step is to teaste ... affter all mixed good add 2 big table spoons of mircle whip more ore lesss to teaste ....if posable let set over nite reheat and serve ,,, i addd more marcle whip if needed,,,, small dish of cottage chesse and freash rolls or bread is nice too”

I used to get wicked good Mexican food at the Bangor farmer’s market by the fairgrounds. That was a few years back though - if they still do it Saturday mornings, it’s worth checking out!
