But hog jowls, collards, rice and black eyed peas are high on the list.<br /><br />If it will stop raining, I'll wash a load of clothes. I can't tomorrow. I don't want the youngest member of my family to die. That would be my little BoDuke. He will even walk in the rain.<br /><br />Have a good New Year. It sure beats a bad one. ;-)Ann Bennetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17759967601352382204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8681132888977525688.post-84209259261959202542015-12-31T09:01:06.416-06:002015-12-31T09:01:06.416-06:00May you and yorn have a healthy, safe, and product...May you and yorn have a healthy, safe, and productive 2000 sixteen.Author R.
