Someday I'll grow enough to last us through the winter. As it is we eat most of what I grow long before it makes it to the freezer. I have one little bag left that I'm saving for a special occasion. Like the day I can't stand it anymore and I have to have some.

My husband grew up on them. They are absolutely my favorite vegetable now. I put beef buillion cubes in our's and right before they are done cooking, I add a tsp or so of sugar. My husband's grandmother taught me the sugar trick.Musings of a Homeschooling Momhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15274501609270888672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8124808159896189783.post-18476453893660296182009-05-13T16:20:00.000-04:002009-05-13T16:20:00.000-04:00What, no purple hull peas?

I have been missing out. Thanks for always giving me a great tutorial on how this Southern woman should cook. :)Jen - Balancing Beauty and Bedlamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09152743288585898776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8124808159896189783.post-22774838163570519312009-05-12T22:36:00.000-04:002009-05-12T22:36:00.000-04:00Yep, every Southern girl should know how to cook p...Yep, every Southern girl should know how to cook purple hulled peas.
