Hey, we have talked about tomatoes, peas and okrie but what about a good mess of butter beans and a hot pon of cornbread. Soak some cucumbers in vinager with a little salt, pepper and onions or a jar of homemade bread and butter pickles. Sometimes we have pickled squash that is good with the peas or beans.

Madaam, you are truly speaking Louisiana... Please don't forget pickled green tomato relish. I wish I could go back in time with a camcorder and video my grandmother cooking hot water cornbread or making yeast rolls. Not to mention fried apple pies and green tomato relish. Did I mention green tomato relish?? :)

Yes, Lest us not to forget a good jar of chowchow or some pickled okrie. I believe in pickling everything I can. Homade jams and jellies to pickles. My son grew up on homemade kosher dill pickles. Hewould eat 5 to 6 cases a winter. My grandson now loves homemade pumkin pie. I fix 27 pies in the freezer in October but he had ate by Christmas. My son and I love bananna pudding. Uhmmm.
