Trying to Get Pregnant

WFD?

That time of the day! We're in the middle of a heat wave here, as I'm sure most are, so cooking dinner in the oven probably wasn't the best idea, but I've had these peppers in the fridge for a while now and wanted to use them, so were having stuffed peppers! What's on everyone's table tonight?

Re: WFD?

  • ::waives hello from the next wave over::

    I made fried chicken, and because it is so unbearably hot, I've been rockin' only my bra and panties all day. 

    Note to self, frying anything while topless is a terrible idea. Although DH thought it was hilarious.

    We had grilled burgers and onion rings at my in laws! And I made an "Apple Angel Cake" thanks Pinterest!
  • Really hot here too!! We had homemade black bean burgers, oven potatoes and corn on the cob.  Fresh pineapple and mango for dessert!

    Hope everyone is staying cool!

    I lolled too. They are delicious! I had never had them before I moved south (I live right on the NC/SC border). They are exactly as named - salty peanuts that are boiled. They are kind of mushy; you boil them in shell and crack the shell and eat the peanut inside. Sooo yummy.

    It's a southern thang, yo. I think it's really popular in Georgia? Don't hold me to that state, but I know it's a southern thing. 

    First place I ever had them was in Savannah, GA where my sister went to school. But yes, it's a southern thing. You can get them at most gas/convenience stations 'round here.

    Yep. Definitely a southern thing. My H loves them. There are always little stands on the side of the road selling them around here.

    Oh, and they're exactly what they sound like. Peanuts boiled in the shell.

    It's a Louisiana thing too! I love boiled peanuts. There was a guy that sold them at football games that said .... Put your money in your hand because here comes the peanut man.

    ETA: in Louisiana they add crab boil when boiling them to make them hot.
    Fucking bump!!!!

    I try to be a good Southern girl (when it comes to food) but I just can't get behind boiled peanuts. Never cared for them. Roast that shiit. 



    I understand ... I'm a bad Cajun I just can't stand seafood!!! I love having crawfish boils but can't stand to touch any of that stuff.
    Fucking bump!!!!
