this picture has nothing to do with the post, but it just makes me laugh. My children are funny.Ok, this is the last food post for a while, I promise. So much else is going on, but most of it is stuff I don't want to think about (selling the house, moving, finding a church, putting sam in real school) so eventually I'll process it all and write. For now, I just wanted to show you my southern meal. The most southernest meal I've ever made. And I thought it was yummy.
Oven fried fish, black eyed peas, collard greens, and cornbread.
Now, when we move back to Kansas, my kids can say they've had greens. Sam liked the black eyed peas the best. Why? Because he said they tasted like boiled peanuts! That's my Georgia boy!
For appetizers, I made these bacon wrapped stuffed jalapeno peppers. And Jess and I played a game of roulette. See, some of the peppers were nice and mild, but others, OH MY! They were painfully hot. The mild ones were sooooooo yummy that they were worth the risk. So we would sit there salivating for another, knowing that we could get the one. The one that causes our mouth to burn and our nose to run. The peppers were halved, so when we had that devilish one, we knew it's pair was on that plate somewhere. Oh, the dilemma!!!!

I'm totally going to try those jalepenos! I can't believe you've got four kids already! (Our babies are just about the same age, Lil' Sis is 10 months.) Where are you moving in KS? Thanks for stopping by my blog. See you in cybersace and at class of '99 reunion?
Yummy, the dinner you cooked looks great! I saw those jalepenos on the PW website and thought they looked yummy. We are having some people over next weekend and I thought I would make them. Oh and I love the picture of the kids, I remember when Drake used to dress up:(
Great picture...they look like superheroes! I really appreciate your menu ideas and recipes! I seem to get stuck in a cooking rut and your ideas help me out. Thanks!
