What's new

The Coffee House

I made my usual cheese balls, but this year for the first time in 25-plus years, no smoked salmon dip! People are gonna be peeved that there's no salmon dip, I just know it. Oh well...
 
Up and at ‘em early this morning. I did none of the cooking I should have done yesterday, so I already have pie crust made. I’ve also got milk condensing for the pie filling, and I’m getting ready to start slicing shallots for the green bean casserole I’m bringing.
 
Oh...and Happy Thanksgiving, hosers!

Y’all are one of the many things I have to be thankful for this year.
 
A happy and safe Thanksgiving to the US hosers. Getting ready to make the sausage pie, then go play in the water for a bit.
 
They are open 24/7. There are no locks on the doors.
Except Christmas
From their website.

All Freeport Retail Stores are open 24 hours a day, 365 days per year.
Please see the chart below for extended holiday hours for
Retail Stores near you.


The store has only been closed a handful of times. Litterally no locks on the door to close!

USA Today article.
The tradition of being open around the clock, 365 days a year in Freeport dates to the opening of L.L. Bean’s first store, five years after he sold his first hunting shoes in 1912.

Bean lived upstairs from the Freeport store, and hunters and fishermen passing through Freeport knew that they could rouse him at all hours if they needed supplies.

The 24-hour tradition was made formal in 1951.

Edit - not being obscene. Copy and past changed the font size and bolds everything. To lazy to try and fix.

If one is opened 24 hours, 365 days a year ... how can one have "extended hours"?
 
Buenas Dias and Happy Thanksgiving Coffee Hosers. Gary is ill. Gary is pissed because he is ill. Last weekend Tom came over sick ... Gary was a little peeved that he did so, especially as Tom is a physician and one would think he'd know better. Mary Lou cheerfully said "Don't worry ..." and that she would "Do it all". But Gary can't and won't have that ... so he is up working when he should be in his death bed.
