Running trotlines as a kid, the old guy just got the coffee water
outta the lake. We would run lines about every 4 hours 24hrs a day.
The pot was on the fire continously. Tasted good.

A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

I can still remember my Maternal Great Grandparents doing that when I was a kid. Same here 😊

I aint never made a fortuneand its probably to late now.
But I dont worry bout that much, I am happy anyhow.
And as I go along lifes way, I'm reapin' better than I sowed.
I am drinkin' from my saucer, cause my cup has overflowed.

My dad whom would be 105 this year would occasionally use a saucer & cup. He seemed to almost make it like a ritual or something. Made me think it reminded him of someone. Of course he usually drank & ate slow & deliberate.
The peas on the butter knife ? LOL, thought that was only a quirk my born in 1888 maternal grandfather had. My mom didn't even know why he did that, that I can remember.

I've never saucered
My grandpa did. I can remember in the early
70's him doing that. My folks never did.
I never have. I guess the only bad coffee
habit I inherited was not washing the coffee
pot or the good drinking cups. That and using
the once used grounds with a spoon of fresh
sprinkled on top. I also reheat coffee most of
the time
