RE: Day 800: 5 Minute Freewrite: Sunday - Prompt: Black-eyed peas

in #bust6 years ago

@wakeupkitty I do not know why it is not heard of over there. All I know for sure is I cook black eyed peas every year to be eaten on day 1 of the new year. I do not know if it works or not because I think it does not work but then again maybe it does and if I did not cook them my luck might be worse. why take the chance? LOL

Sort:  

hahaha, maybe try some other country's new year's day good luck food. The japanese serve soba noodles, the greeks make bread. the year I made hoppin john, I tried all three. I don't remember if it was a good year or not

@owasco that sounds like a plan, I make cornbread to go with the black-eyed peas, I wonder if it counts for bread. I have never heard of soba noodles, it has to be good because it is noodles.

@myjob You are never in the mood to eat something else? We eat leftovers from the day before. That is custom.
I wish you good luck!

@wakeupkitty yes we also eat leftovers, sometimes for several days, I always cook more than two people can eat in one night. My crockpot of black-eyed peas is full we will be eating them for many days.

@myjob What do they taste like?
I guess after you ate the whole pot your luck will never come to an end. 💕

@wakeupkitty Have you ever had boiled peanuts? To me, that is what they taste like. Maybe I did not eat enough of them because my luck has been bad, I will write about my day in today's freewrite.

@myjob No I only eat roasted. Can you boil peanuts? I will try that once to find out about the taste.

Luck does not come with the food. Take a rabbit tail and a piece of chocolate and I keep my fingers crossed for you and your boat. 💕
