But I didn't get gravy on the smashed taters, so that helped offset the fried chicken and biscuit.<br /><br />Yeah, right.Playground Monitorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07444337591281145863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7879469137485178867.post-67562054674429586582012-01-31T10:54:24.377-06:002012-01-31T10:54:24.377-06:00Ah yes, the bacon grease--a little dab will do ya ...Ah yes, the bacon grease--a little dab will do ya in those collard greens and pinto beans too.

I had one, too, for years. Then I decided to stop pouring grease in my body.

Each June they host the RC and Moon Pie Festival. And yep, they have fried Moon Pies.<br /><br />My favorite food? Gotta be bread. Hot from the oven (or in my case, the bread machine) and slathered in real butter with maybe some homemade apple or peach butter too. I'm a carb junkie but I've tried to make my carbs whole grain now.<br /><br />Did you ever fry day-old biscuits? My grandma used to do that. She'd split them, butter them and "fry" them in a cast iron skillet. I guess she was really just toasting them, but fried biscuits sounded better.<br /><br />MarilynPlayground Monitorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07444337591281145863noreply@blogger.com
