Do you know about the honor system? Did you know here in 2011 it is still around. It made my heart all fuzzy and warm when a couple of weeks ago heading south to the gulf coast for a wedding. As my appetite was craving a brown paper bag of boiled peanuts I searched the roadsides for a handmade " hot boiled peanuts" sign ( I really like mine cold, but one can't be to picky, right?). Then, we ran across this sweet little place. As I jumped out of the car wondering if they take checks, because of the lack of cash in my wallet I was pleasantly surprised.......


Freshly made cane syrup......


3 different kinds of cookies all with hand-written cursive tags....


And, of course, the honor of this system...... Spiral bound notebook and a tin can. A. To write down your purchase and B. to deposit your money.


Did you know places like this were still around? Maybe we need more of them. Thinking about it today still makes me smile!
