When the bread became too hard to chew, they soaked it in wine. The softened bread, called "sop", served the purpose of collecting the sediment accumulated accumulated with the fermentation fermentation and aging of the wine. The meaning of "toast" expanded to include the dnnk in which the bread had been soaked and even the person in whose honor the drink was consumed. Although Although you can choose toasts from books compiled by others, the best toasts are custom-made.

Letter to The Editor Re: Farm Tax Exemptions Exemptions It would seem the big push is on against the survival survival of the small farm family unit if Durham Region's Official Official Plan Review prevails. The objective is to eliminate all farmers' retirement lots and all family related lots to farmers. This does not bother bother the larger farmer as he merely gives members of his. family one of his farm pieces. pieces. It does affect the small farmer radically. The small farmer depends on his retir- ment lot in place of any pension pension system he might have and if he worked in industry. This then will be lost to him. He might be able to survive as a small farming unit if he had a relative of his family living on the farm in their own dwelling - this is also eliminated. Looking at the benefits to the large farmer the objective objective is to keep the selling price of the small farms at a low cost. This obviously is a : great benefit to the large farmer who wants to buy out the small farm since the small farmer has to sell to that abutting large farmer or look for a hobby purchaser. In summary, it would seem a huge land grab is being being instrumented by our revisions revisions in our planning concept. concept. This must be stopped before it stagnates all land usage by ordinary people and ordinary farmers. I urge all members of the community community of Durham to contact their Regional Councillors and their local Councillors to voice their objections to this hostile thrust by our planning planning sections.
