I see you are missing her. <br />Our breakfasts as a kid were always oatmeal, eggs and homefries, sometimes bacon or some kind of homemade sausage, ham was for Easter. Lunch and supper were big meals in the summertime because of all the work to do on the farm. It made a hardworking kid hungry. I remember many a pork roast AND a beef roast in the oven at the same time with lots of potatoes, carrots, celery, onions and rutabagas all roasted together, seasoned with salt, pepper, and a bay leaf...lots of gravy from the drippings. Oh my, am I salivating. Always on Sun. was oven fried chicken, mashed potatoes with paprika sprinkled on the top, chicken gravy, of course, green beans or corn, and Moms Chocolate Cake with Peanut Butter frosting. Are ya hungry yet?<br />Lots of memories, you just stirred up, Jack.<br />Have a great day,<br />Heck, Have a Great Week<br />BlessYourSweetHeartsDarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16642092433299872708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-69316161181721152292010-07-04T22:36:19.049-04:002010-07-04T22:36:19.049-04:00What a wonderful tribute to your mother.

Well, those were the days when I could still eat eggs.<br /><br />Not with this current Vegan Diet...no meat, no dairy........Ugh. Makes one unhappy Italian!<br /><br />I guess we all have to deal with Cholesterol must come with the age factor. Mine is sky high because the doctor took me off all meds for now until he resolves the spiked liver enzimes.........I'm a total mess!<br /><br />Happy 4th my dear friend!Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04718940729278446028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-46787785493966787792010-07-04T21:16:33.324-04:002010-07-04T21:16:33.324-04:00BTW - that first picture of you and your Mom is th...BTW - that first picture of you and your Mom is the way I remember her.

Two on top of two or three dallops of grits, served with bacon or sausage or country ham. Add biscuits and butter mixed with molasses and a cup of coffee which I always drank hot and black. (However I admit that I do add a 1/4 tsp of sugar these days) Now - unlike you, we did have dry cereal a lot, especially when we moved to New Orleans and I started the 9th grade. I needed three bowls full each morning to prepare me for that 14 block walk to the school. Wheaties - Breakfast of Champions! ☻Fred Altonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12740055638280779519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-10663327022063235952010-07-04T18:01:26.525-04:002010-07-04T18:01:26.525-04:00Some good memories you have of your Mama.

Our breakfasts were pancakes and eggs, seldom meat cause there usually was none. We had custard but not often enough to please me.
