Abigail Hathorne Before you stands Abigail Hathorne, helping the accused witches escape the grasp of her own brother, Judge Hathorne himself. Abigail freed many from their holding cells, until the Judge caught her in the act and locked up in a cell deep within the Hathorne House. The statue was given the name Little Liberty in honor of her valiant efforts to free the innocent.
Frances Tuttle More recently, Frances Tuttle, Judge Hathorne’s last direct descendant, lived in a small section of the house while the rest was left to fall into considerable disrepair. She was alone except for a part-time caregiver, Lauren Holt, who had a bedroom in the carriage house. A few months ago, Frances Tuttle passed away, while left Hathorne House without a legal heir. According to the historical statutes of Salem, after ninety days the house reverts to public property. The deadline, of which, is two days from now, at midnight.
Americans, I’m fascinated by your weird as shit regional dishes. What’s the weirdest regional dish from your state that is actually good?
Include photo and description if possible.
The reason I ask is that every once or so often I stumble across a tweet or a post of someone going “Man I love ass-to-mouth burgers from DogTown, Alabama” and I’m left speechless.
Meet a horseshoe from central Illinois. It’s typically Texas toast on the bottom, two burger patties side by side, French fries, and then topped with a white cheese sauce. You can use other meats as I quite like it with a fried pork tenderloin. And there is a breakfast version of it as well.
New rule - if your weird dish contains another weird dish you have to explain that to.
What is different about Texas toast vs regular toast?
It’s double the thickness of regular bread.
Stunning.
As a Marylander I am obligated under state law to bring up
also we have very strong opinions about The Only Correct Crab Cakes, which are the ones made The Way We Make Them Here
The notes on this one are gold.
May I introduce you to Richmond VA’s Sailor Sandwich? Rye bread, brown mustard, hot pastrami, swiss, and a grilled split knockwurst on the top.
New England brown bread. It comes in a can. It sounds gross, but it’s honestly great; you just have to grill it and put butter on it and have it with baked beans and franks (no bun; you slice them and eat them with the beans).
We love our molasses up in Yankeeville. I also have very fond memories of my grandfather’s kitchen, aromatic with the freshly-baked molasses cookies he loved to give his grandkids when they were still oven-warm.
