C&F is ...

Post by Walden »

A group of old men sitting around a checkerboard on a pickle barrel in a store. Sure, if it weren't for the checkers they wouldn't be there, but the conversation doesn't revolve around that.

You mean that you don't like to take the pickle juice and freeze it to make pickle popsicles?

Depends on the pickle. Bread &Butter or Kosher Dills are my favorites. :)

I just can't do pickles....when I was little, I got one of those HUGE dill ones from the Deli at the grocery store. I ate the WHOLE thing at one sitting. Because of that, I can't eat pickles. Unless I'm pregnant, and then only with French Vanilla ice cream.

Make it a chessboard and throw in some really strong coffee and you've got a deal.

Checkers? He must mean draughts.

Anyone for Backgammon? Or Mancala? (Not that Wari game, I'm not up to that.)

In Wisconsin our pickle barrels were about 10ft. across and ya had to use an 18ft ladder to get to the top. Playing checkers that way never really took off. That and the fact that they always had pickles in 'em.
