New Years Feast

[Bruce Mc]

What do y'all fix up for New Years good luck? At my house it was Black eye peas, cornbread, boiled cabbage, ham, and buttermilk pie. The wife out did herself this year. I need to go get lotto tickets.

For many years it has been black-eyed pea casserole and bread pudding with butter sauce. Since it is also my birthday, I get to call the shots on the meal. This year, a taste of home--chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes with milk gravy, corn, and bread pudding with butter sauce for dessert. Can't ask for better luck than this.

I like my bread pudding with a New Orleans touch, Rum sauce.

I don't think I've ever had black eyed peas , I'll have to google up some dishes to see what it looks like .

my family didn't get together for news years this year . we gathered at my Mom's for Christmas , and we got the flu . Mom was the only one that didn't get sick . she is going to have us together after we heal up .

my younger sisters husband always put on a feast for the family . he laid out a spread like he was feeding an army . the next day he would divide up the leftovers and deliver care packages . we would eat at this food until we were afraid it was too old . my did he over cook . one of the things he always made , and I enjoyed a lot was some kind of a German noodle . he made a dough shaped in a ball . he then ran the dough ball over a cheese grater and the grated noodle fell into the pan and was pan fried . that was one dish I couldn't leave alone .

lot's of good memories . Happy New Years you guys !

We have black eyed peas, ham and corn bread as well, I actually asked why once. She's from eastern Kentucky, don't recall the explanation but the cue words, yankee and damn yankee followed by "bless your heart" were part of the conversation. I once made a mistake by expressing my ignorance about Bourbon, southern girls have some powerfulfeelings on some things. I love black eyed peas and corn bread. Now.
Happy new year.
