Table Treats WAS: My Own HH

From: Team Randalstik (esjunk@comcast.net) | Date: 2006-09-15 20:04:15 UTC-04:00

Oooooo. I like this name for this type of box. Is it an official
name? Because it should be! Let me go see on one of the sites if it
is in their glossary . . .

nope.

Nothing in the glossaries and nothing when you Google. I think this
is cool name for these types of boxes. Of course I am assuming or
reading into the name assuming that it means a letterbox that is
usually placed during an event on a table in plain view but is
disguised as something else, ie a jar of maraschino cherries, a bag
of wipes, or a round of cheese.

TABLE TREATS

I like IT!!!

Actually Table Treats is a name I came up with for all the stuff you
find on the table (disguised or otherwise)and have bandied it about
in my travels.
