Question of the Week - Green Boiled Peanuts and fresh peaches

[Guest guest]

Oh I detested these growing up! lol However, when I retasted them at 30 I feel

head over heels in love!  I have only had them boiled in extremely salted water.

  That taste came from a flea market in Tallahasse FL, there at the flea

market.  I tasted one of my Dad's and went back for some of my own.   He just

laughed at me.  I now eat them whenever I can.  We have a local family that sets

up on the corner of main street and cobbsford (the road my mom lives on) and I

get them there whenever I see them out.  They have a spicy cajun version that I

haven't dared try yet.  The ol' tummy ain't what she used to be. lol  I just

love hitting all the mom and pop fruit and veggie stands down here in the

south.  There is one up the road in Clanton that the peach (pick your own and

they ship world wide) people have where you can get homemade peach ice cream,

boiled peanuts, anything and everything peaches as well as all manner of local

produce and local

specialiaties.  One of my favorites is the local raw honey with the comb still

in.  (I like chewing on the wax.)  You can also get locally ground grits from a

nearby watermill, as well as cornmeal, and I think oatmeal but won't swear to

that one.  I love my life! Nothing like a sweet juicy ripe peach dripping

juice down your chin on a hot summer day...YUM!
