He seemed to me like the natural heir to Mr Allen, but I may be totally wrong.<br />Are there recipes in the depression book ? In Germany we had soup kitchens after WWI and again in the early thirties. In some places they are there again. But now the poor can have dirt cheap food in the local "Tafel" (table), where surplus from supermarket is used, instead of throwing it into the bin. You must be a registered poor, what means that you have to show a card from the rotten "Sozialamt". Some years ago I qualified. Usually one does not have to suffer from scorbut before being admitted to the holy trug, but it helps. And do not believe that those nice people in the social administration would forget to remind you that all this is payed for by "other people". That is especially nice when they say it to old people who can't live from the pension after forty years of maloche. But I digress, sorry.<br />Interesting selection as usual, dearest Mistress, the obligatory tear jerker included *ducks*<br />BTW can you give me your copy of Leather Nun when you are finished ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24611442.post-26613679156199240102016-11-03T13:31:23.141-04:002016-11-03T13:31:23.141-04:00Bruhahaa ...
