Lettuce! Isn't it beautiful? I about froze to death picking it today, but here it is!

I love fresh veggies. Getting ready to plant my garden.

I just love the taste of fresh greens.

ahh - firstfruits... did you tithe? heheheheeee

I can still see my daddy enjoying his fresh lettuce,onions,and bacon grease heated to wilt it down before eating.

Sweetpea, my Mom still makes that. She calls it killing the lettuce. Yum Yum.

My wife's favorite meal is fried ham with sop, stewed potatoes, green beans, corn bread and lettuce w/ chopped green onions to spoon the sop over.
Sop is what some call red eye gravy. Fry the ham in lard and remove ham. With the cast iron skillet very hot, pour a little coffee in the grease.
That's sop.

Oh my, this sure does bring back some good memories, from my childhood.

It sure does Jan. I love my Mom's homecooking. When I go visit, I always freeze the leftovers to bring back with me. Had pinto beans, fried taters and greens for dinner this evening, leftovers. Yum.

I love red eye gravy!
