When the cook says it's time to eat, the herd comes running. As the lumberjacks head for the tables, they notice that there is a lot of food waiting for them. Most times there is roasted meat of one kind or other, big bowls of potatoes, lots of gravy and stacks of fresh bread.
Now what in the world is bread without butter! Right in the middle of the tables is a bowl of butter shaped like a baseball. The first guy to try to get some, finds that it's frozen solid. Each time he tries to stab it, the ball rolls in the bowl. To get some butter, you need to be a bit creative. If you have a knife, you stab it so it will hold still.
Then after the meal, comes dessert, most times pie. Coffee was the drink of choice.
