Yes. And when the grease cools, strain it and keep for seasoning in green beans and other veggies. I have 2 jars in my refrigerator and a bacon dripping can on my stove that I use to strain it through. Yummy. Have a blessed and delicious Sunday morning.
Thank you AND I will...Very Gracious of you to reply. You reminded me of my mother and her mother always had those lil' cans with strainers in them, and I love eating what was in there...WOWZA!!!!
Just call me 'Mom.' I had a young lady on Gab one day where I had answered someones' post about doing things others do, and I said, 'If your friends jumped off a bridge would you do that too?' And this young lady came back and said, 'Mom, is that you?' I thought it was so funny.
I've always liked answering that question with 'is the bridge on fire?'
Haha. That is a very good answer. Wish I'd thought of it when my Mom asked me that question.
Okay...Mom IT IS...
Also, Purkiss80...Tango Yankee on BRIGHTENING UP this Sunday Morning...
OUTSTANDING!!!!!👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
Yes indeed!
Ironically, my mother used to ask me about jumping off the bridge when I was growing up. When she got the vax so that her friends wouldn't shun her, I turned it around on her. She did not answer me, but she and my sister got the shot while I was at work one day.
So you let her have the line she used on you. Well at least you proved to her that you listened. Too bad she didn't. I'm sorry about that friend.
Makes me want collard greens.
Oh yes. I love all the greens except kale. I remember picking 'poke' greens with my grandma and watching her parboil, rinse and then cook them with some fatback or a ham hock or a piece of jowl bacon. Those were the days. Collards, mustard, turnip, poke, mixed, it didn't matter. I still eat them all with a slice of boiled egg, some sliced onion and a slab of buttered skillet baked corn bread. Mmmm! Mmmm!
And dandelion greens! So good!
And I forgot spinach. And also my grandmother showed me how to look and pick 'wild' asparagus. Much better tasting than the asparagus I grow in a bed or the store bought kind. Whole different flavor.
I make my popcorn in bacon grease in a cast iron pot.
I meant Bearcat Brown instead of Mean Joe Green. Sorry my memory is lapsing.
YES! I remember my father doing that. When the 'Wrestling' would come on on weekends, he would send my sisters to the country grocer around the corner to buy an 8 pack of 16 oz soda's while he popped corn to get ready for the fight. Those were the days of 'Jackie Fargo, Tojo Yamamoto and Mean Joe Green.'
Yea Mean Joe played for the Pittsburgh Steelers and was in the famous coke commercial with the kid in the tunnel. "Here kid, Catch." and he throws him his jersey.
This was how Grandpa taught me to make popcorn many decades ago. First time I can remember eating it this way was up at the cabin watching the Summer Olympics in 1972. Of course back then that was the only channel you could get up in the north country of Michigan and then reception was snowy and on a 13 inch B&W. Thats where I saw Fosberry do his flop and Spitz win his 5 golds.
Also, I meant in wrestling Bearcat Brown and I got him mixed up with Mean Joe Green. But same time era. Wrong sport.
Yes. I remember we only had 3 channels and someone had to get up and turn the dial. And if it was 'snowy' on the screen, someone went outside and turned the antennae. And then if the horizontal or vertical hold was messed up, my dad would have to adjust it. AH! THE GOOD OLD DAYS. How I wish I had them back.
