@dogwoodblooms We've called 'em both - it could also be referred to as a Poor Man's Supper. That's what is used when the meal is served as a fundraiser. You've got us thinkin' about having that for supper. We like 'em with onions, sour pickles, a good soakin' of tomato juice, and pepper.

Have you ever heard of soup beans? When I was growing up in WNC, Mamaw and Papaw made meatless suppers once or twice a week. Those meals usually consisted of soup beans seasoned with pork and various sides: fried taters with onions, cabbage, boiled taters, fresh sliced maters, homemade canned green beans, fried green maters, ramps, or wilted lettuce. You never knew what sides would show up on the plate, but there would always be a variety—and the meal was guaranteed to come with a slice of cornbread. Daddy liked his soup beans with a spoonful of mayo on top. Mamaw took hers with diced raw onion. Papaw doused his with Texas Pete. I don’t know what made me think of soup beans today… I think I’m craving them. Which is weird. I ate so much of them during hard times that they started turning my stomach. You don’t really hear the term “soup beans” in the eastern part of North Carolina. It makes my heart a little sad. “Pinto beans” sounds too plain. Anyone else call them soup beans? 👀

For chickens, after their value in trade was determined, they would be stored in the coop below the floor via a hatch until it was time to sell them or take them to market. The Chicken Hatch is near the 5¢ coffee in the Front Room. Ask one of our staff members to show you. 🐔

Not so long ago, the Original Mast Store worked some sales in barter. W.W., then Howard, and finally H. Mast would take roots and bark, Galax and eggs, skins and chickens in return for school books, coffee, collars and notions, oranges and boots.

@scism_cameron @sportynurses Thanks for the shoutout, and we agree. The Falls Park is beautiful and such an improvement over what was there earlier. 🤩😍

@sportynurses Greenville is a gem. Make sure you get to Falls Park on the Reedy River and go out on the Liberty Bridge, which is a really cool feat of engineering. Hit the Mast Store and downtown if you have time. @MastStore
