hehehe..got u all huh...thought i was talking about a lil pussy cat...jejeje...nah...but anyways..this cat is fun to play with...move things out the way...knock over stuffs..bla bla bla...the works... although driving it for long periods on the rough road..is pretty boring...but the perks of being able to play with one of these babies is pretty cool...When we were pretty small they would get us..those tonka trucks and we would all be like...when we grow up we want to drive some of those or have them to play with...well i am very fortunate ot be able to play with a couple of those vehicles and more. Due to my father-in-law's company with whom I had worked with for a while..These machine at the plant included the following in order of appearance starting left to right and going
down. cement mixer, PH crane, mower, jeep, toe-
head, with trailer, the forklift, the CAT (backhoe), bedford Crane, ATV, the famous, T-beam truck hehehe and most famous which we all would have at least used once in our life.. the wheel barrow... these babies are fun to deal with... jejej... anyways..back to my story...yeah.. so while waiting to take the Cat home..we decided to go and dig up some dirt...after which...it was already like after 1 when we decided to have lunch at the farm...
so we started to take out the food stuff and made the fire on the fogon or whichever way u spell it..heated up the oil and started to fry the fish....as you can see below..my mother-in-law was frying the fish
Yeah...pretty cool huh...I guess for us people up north..or maybe through out...who knows...this is basically how things used to be back in days...the way of life...how things got done...
As you can see...the plaintains in the background...not that i eat it..but i noticed that practically everyone i am around...eats it..funny..maybe i had too much while i was young...I used to eat those things like bananas...so yeah maybe indeed i am tired of it...Well anyways...this is what we ended up with and i guess how people use to eat back in the days...in a plate kinda like this...but yeah..this was basically my
experience with going to pickup the backhoe from Honey Camp. My experience at eating like our great grand parents use to eat back in days...reliving the moment...jajaja Hasta Lluego....

Daggy laggy. Dem beans look senior! Real old fashion style too. Someday I will submit myself to cooking — some day.
On the subject of Tonka trucks. Never had one of those — too expensive mein but I member Pablo having one of those metal ones back in the Corozal days.
The food looks scrumptious. Reminds me of the days we lived on the farm. Only because Mom didn't cook like that. I had plenty of neighbours who took care of me in that aspect though. MMMMM!
My brothers and I were given a bunch of Tonka trucks when we were little. If I remember right, the company my had dad worked for gave my brothers two different trucks each, and they gave me a doll with a frilly dress and something else.... The summer following my brothers and I used the trucks to make a sand castle and the doll was the foundation. I wasn't an ungrateful child... just unyielding to social norms.
I've been thinking about it... maybe I was subjecting myself to social norms back then...considering that Bobby and Thom were my society at the time.
