BTW, pretty cat!

Yup! That sounds like a pretty workable plan. I might make that my Friday night "relax" plan.

Thanks....Tinker is the oldest cat in the house and is the house matriarch. She's very dignified. The other one we have is a holy terror.

Nancy, Tinker looks a lot like the big cat owned by a neighbor. Her cat is 15 lbs! Is your cat that big?

Ah yes, peanuts in coke - a Southern tradition. Brings back memories and I still do it from time to time. I miss those old glass bottles. The coke seemed to taste a little better in them.

I grew up on a South Georgia peanut farm and couldn't agree more.

Great thread...I remember my grandfather making the combo with me when I was a child.

No....Tinker is about 9 lbs. She'd probably be 15 lbs if the younger one wasn't chasing her all the time.

I think it's the Smokehouse BBQ in Greenville, AL on I-65 that still has those little cokes in the bottle right by the front door. Two cokes and two bags of peanuts will take you all the way to Mobile. Pouring peanuts into a coke bottle at 70+ mph is no easy feat but well worth it.

Nancy, you WERE a little brat.

Now what stores did you do this in??? ~takes notebook out to make notes~

My father was in the army. Lived in a lot of small army camps here and there in different provinces in Canada. One camp had a total of 36 familes. There wasn't a lot to do to amuse ourselves and I was pretty creative.

I used to love to shake the coke. Peanuts made the glass bottle type fizz better!

Sort of reminds me of that old country song......I was country before country was cool.
