You saved the day with this recipe, Lucy/Roberta. We'll be making it for sure. Thanks for sharing and have a lovely weekend. We're shivering here in NYC with below zero wind chill (not as cold as MJ - stay warm, MJ!), but we can certainly use a hot, hearty Cleo Coylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15557517506340986862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4309470395783938361.post-6513884009141068192013-01-24T12:15:44.319-05:002013-01-24T12:15:44.319-05:00I hope they keep you warm MJ!

I have a friend who believes they're lucky and swallows them whole because she hates them! Gack! I didn't know about cabbage being lucky, though. Maybe that explains some bad luck. ; ) <br /><br />I happen to like black-eyed peas and they're so good for us. I believe I'll try your recipe, Lucy!<br /><br />~ KristaKristahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11002970043709820868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4309470395783938361.post-39195159900387185522013-01-24T09:08:15.033-05:002013-01-24T09:08:15.033-05:00LOL Jack!

New Year's day we always had blackeyed peas with ham hocks and greens of course the cornbread. Granny could make them better than anyone I've ever met. But she was probably the best cook in the world....of course I'm a littl partial. ;)Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10602713660235734669noreply@blogger.com
