Hi Hap,

-> I know; it is a rather bright color. (G) I usually cut them in half and
-> add just a bit of salt & peppper to them.  Good eating!

 hn> I cut them in half and add a wee bit
 hn> of salt and a goodly dab of Sriracha!
 hn> Zing!! good eating!!

At present, there's no Sriracha in the the house but I'm thinking of
remedying that situation.

-> -> more of it when he got married. It was an inexpensive meal for a big
-> -> family; a pound of ground beef would feed the 7 of us.

->  hn> we'd get hamburger stew.

-> Ever get hot dog stew? Just canned vegetable soup made with about half
-> the normal amount of water and cut up hot dogs in it. Not glamourous but
-> cheap and filling.

 hn> Never had hot dog stew...but we did have
 hn> a lot of beanie weenie!!

All cheap and filling eats for growing families on limited incomes.
After my dad gave my mom a bean pot one year for Christmas, the first
Sunday of the month evening meal (year round) was beans. Not fun to got
to school the next morning. (G)

->  hn> She made the best divinity candy in the world
->  hn> and her banana pudding was to die for!! She

-> Nothing like a good banana pudding. I've had some memorable ones and
-> some I'd like to forget.

->  hn> did a lot of "from scratch" cooking, but most
->  hn> ladies in the south did that.

-> And the north, but neither one do as much as they used to. I had some
-> beef soup bones so tonight's supper was multi bean soup with the bones,
-> started with sauteed celery & onion. I used some home made veggie stock
-> and a big can of crushed tomatoes in addition to the water. Seasonings
-> were salt & original Mrs Dash. Side of home made whole wheat biscuits &
-> butter blend (3 sticks butter to 1 cup olive oil, mixed well). A good
-> cold & wet weather meal.

 hn> Did you roast the bones in the oven before
 hn> putting em in the soup pot?

No, should have, but didn't. Wouldn't have added any more meat but yes,
some more flavor. We figure next time it will be bones and a bit of
smoked turkey in the pot.

->  hn> Not much better than a hot buttered biscuit
->  hn> with a slice of tomato ...ahhhh!

-> Got to wait a few more months until tomatoes are in season again.

 hn> That is one of the few downsides to living
 hn> here in paradise...it gets too cool in the
 hn> evenings. Even in the hottest days of summer
 hn> we often get down to the mid 50's at night.
 hn> Mater's like a lot of warmth and over 70 all
 hn> night makes them happy...we seldom get
 hn> that kind of warmth...dang it!

And we will probably have some by the latter part of June thru August.
