    Black eyed peas
    Collard greens
    Buttermilk cornbread

    Happy New Year!


    Now I just have to weight for neighbors to get home to drop off care packages. This batch of cornbread was 14 sticks in cast iron, four sticks in thin steel, and eight triangles from the cast iron cornbread pan.

    You don't do ham?

    There's some back bacon in the greens for flavor. Ham has never been part of my tradition. But if it's lucky, I'll eat some. I think I have some prosciutto in the fridge. Does that count?

    I used to like the vanilla ones. :/

    I used to always eat them out of the bulk bins when I went to the grocery store with my mom as a kid 😆.

    which just reinforces that open bulk bins are highly questionable....might just give you a little something extra with that bag of whatever you bagged....eeekkkk 😮😬

    The BEST crispy sweet potato fries from this restaurant I had visiting family last year. Actually could go for the burger and sandwich too. dc20rzff060d.jpeg

    I am munching on one of the items on this plate right now. The other item looks gross to me :)

    Well, you know I'm now wondering what your gross out item is! Is it the...crackers?

    Nope. I am munching on the crisps. I am not a fan on that slab of cheesy mess... never was, never will be. Even back in my "fun" days.
    Never seen those crackers what is the brand/name of them?

    Yep. Black-eyed peas represent coins. Collards; paper money. Sunshine biscuits are gold. Money can't buy happiness, but it can't hurt. These symbols are also supposed to represent prosperity in general, not just financial prosperity.

    Happy New Year!

    Well.... Looks like maybe I had the pork delivered.

    Neighbor brought "kraut balls" on the plate I left them full of other goodies. Seems to be sauerkraut, ground pork, and blue cheese rolled into balls, rolled in bread crumbs and deep fried.

    I hope fried food is good luck..... Because it's sure tasty.

    After I posted this, I later thought that it was most likely the cheese. Actually the crackers inspired me to post it in the first place 🤣🤣 I could totally leave the brie cheese but I would absolutely love those crackers with some blue cheese or salty feta.😉

    Those look so good, do they have a name? I've never seen anything like them before, but need to try them now, lol. I searched amazon for "seedy crackers" but didn't see anything that looked like them.

    I like this brand: 3fvn5ghlwr75.png
    Trader Joe's has some too.
    Easy to make them though to: https://under500calories.com/recipe/23c86-copycat-trader-joes-pumpkin-cranberry-crisps

    You can make these at home if you want. I think they're based on a Norwegian crisp bread.

    Essentially you make a very wet batter that has a crapton (a technical term) of seeds, then bake on a sheet pan and cut into size as they cool.

    If I made them, I'd eat them all. So tasty. Every now and then I'll get some of these at Trader Joe's. I struggle with leaving some for the day after I open the package.

    The ingredients are sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, wholemeal rye flour, oat bran, oatmeal, flaxseed, spelt wheat bran, wheat bran, water, sea salt, salt, oregano, thyme. More seeds than flour. Yum.

    Should I bring some Brie?

    Or Cambozola?

    Because these would be great with Cambozola.

    I'd give that a try.. I love brie too though 🤤

    Sounds like I'm not alone in my craving for these crispy/addictive 'things'🙃
