Hi Shawn,

A child might but I think most adults are of the same opinion that we
have.
RH> (used to be pumpkin pie or pumpkin cake) for his birthday cake, plus
RH> going out somewhere. It's a low key day for both of us, tho I had a
RH> nice surprise this year--a call from our oldest grandson.
SH> That's nice!
It was; I was at our American Legion Auxiliary Christmas in July party &
they were getting ready to take a group picture when he called. I ducked
into the kitchen and they took the picture, then took another one when I
came out.
RH> to follow, so will probably pick up some split peas.
SH> That's one of my favorites so I agree with Steve. :) The only time
SH> Andrea will eat split pea is if I make the soup, the commercial
SH> variety's she
SH> does not like at all.
We'll eat the canned but definatly prefer my home made. I'll put in
anything from carrots, onions and potatoes to adding tomato sauce--all
depends on what's in the fridge and pantry and what strikes my fancy the
day I make it. We picked up the split peas the other day at Wegman's; I
asked Steve to pick them up while I went for something else. I got what
I wanted, then joined him as he was looking at 2 packages of dried peas.
One package was the usual split peas, other one was dried whole peas. We
went with the split peas; they cook up and "mush" easily.
