...with us last night, you would have dined on:
lobster bisque
romaine lettuce salad with homemade blue cheese dressing, candied
walnuts, and mandarin oranges
beef wellington or salmon with cream sauce and capers
garlic mashed potatoes
fresh green beans
hoppin' john
fresh fruit compote
champagne
a nice selection of domestic and imported wines and beers
- - all food items homemade from scratch - -
But I suppose most of you dined with loogy or justhate, and had an
enjoyable meal of chicken ala popeyes, rice and beans (floating in
grease), twinkies, and Annie Green Springs wine or Miller Lite beer.
Happy New Year to those who deserve such.
... but are you having your black eyed peas today?
Ok, what's with the Black Eyed Peas? Did I miss something growing up???
hoppin' john: black eyed peas, rice, bacon, onion. southern tradition,
stolen probably from the Carib...if eaten on NY Day, supposed to bring
good luck. We first heard of it one year in the mid-90's, when we spent
the christmas holidays in Savannah.
