    joke that when tea came to this district first, the people didn't know how to use it and they used boil it and eat the leaves.
    Long ago mugs and tin cans were used before cups became common. In later years some farmers killed a pig or a cow. and they used it all the year round with their own vegetables, such as turnips, cabbage, and parsnips.
