Fine words butter no parsnips.
You may well hear the odd fine word or be served parsnips in my house, preferably roasted, but no butter to go with them. You would need Nana around for parsnips to go with the butter!! 😉
Since this is Nana’s Day, she deserves a Post of her own!
That’s why we picked today for our wedding day too! (Nana’s birthday, not the parsnips!!)
Happy Anniversary, Barbara & Peter.
🙂
Happy Anniversary! Ours is tomorrow.
I think I remember that from last year! have a great day!! xxx
Al, Happy Anniversary for tomorrow 7th April!
I always assume that means fine words won’t help when you’re starving. But then again, if you’re starving you wouldn’t need the butter.
Nick, I think you have the right idea. Mammy used it to stop me talking and get on with preparing the food for our gang!
I’m not sure I understand the one liner . . . but I love parsnips. With butter.
I take it as: Idle chatter does not get the work done!
A parsnip for your thought. Dianne
Dianne, I was thinking of roasting some to go with my dinner this evening!
Naturally, I read this and the post on Nana in sequence and left a comment in the latter linking these two. Well done.
Thank you!
