I’m screwed then.

What’s the story about black eyed peas?


Just an old southern custom
You eat blackeyed peas for luck, greens for money and carrots for
gold.
I had a double helping of greens and spilled some on my Mega Millions
ticket. ;-)


I ate a giant load of salad at olive garden yesterday. does that count?


We like Olive Garden, too.

I cooked baby back ribs in my *instant pot* last night. Basically, I cut
the rack of ribs in half, put a rub on them, put them in the pot with
some water and onions, and cooked them for 15 minutes. When I took them
out of the pot, I cut them into individual ribs, brushed barbecue sauce
on all sides, and baked them for about 10 minutes.

They really came out tasty, and the meat just fell off the bones. The
instant pots are terrific, especially if you don't want to spend a lot
of time cooking.

I'm going to try a corned beef brisket next. Usually that would take six
to eight hours in the crock pot. Probably use this recipe:
