I just finished my traditional New Year's meal. I am not superstitious, but I do love the black eye pea and cabbage story. Black eye peas for luck and cabbage for money. Another reason to eat them. I would normally soak overnight and cook slow the peas but did you know the canned ones are just as great. I did not have cabbage so turnip greens had to do. Did you know canned turnip greens are a good sub for fresh or frozen? So with a small slice of ham and my cooked in my small iron skillet corn bread --I had a feast. I watched some of the Rose Day parade while a ate. One thing missing--and he would not care much for the parade but the meal was a favorite for Truman too. Can't believe I am still hanging around here without him. But I am sure it is part of the plan and I am glad to be here.
Cold and rainy today and more rain is expected for the next two days. I will find things to do inside. Glad that I can.
