Did you eat black eyed peas and cabbage today? The peas are for "good luck" and the cabbage is for "money".... I'm eating both!

Nope we did not. I did make a delicous crock pot full of potato soup instead though!

I do love traditions but this particular one we don't observe. No one here likes cabbage and we just forgot about getting black eyed peas.

Well I'll eat some for ya!

Fortunately I found some pepper sauce in the back of the fridge. It wasn't homemade, it was trappy's but better than nothing on peas and cabbage.

We had turnip greens w/turnips with our cabbage and blackeyepeas. Hopefully, we will be blessed with lots of money.

We had our black-eyed peas but we had turnip greens instead of cabbage. We always heard anything green is for money. We also had baked chicken, rice & gravy mac&cheese, and cornbread.
