I was invited to a throw down yesterday by my sister Becky. She told me to stop by after work to get something to eat because she was cooking. My two sisters Becky (Rebecca Suzanne) and Phyl (Phyllis Randa) and I all cook alike because all three of us were cooking “home schooled” by our Mom. Anyway, I was only too happy to stop by as Becky can truly “throw down” when she wants to. Not in the Bobby Flay “I challenge you to a throw down” way. I mean in the “come on over and eat cause I threw down” way! Becky likes to pretend that she “doesn’t remember how to cook” because she doesn’t do it as often as she used to when her kids were coming up! I figured out that if you pretend like you don’t remember how to cook, you get invited to eat other people’s cooking more than they get to eat yours! Smart, especially if you don’t love to cook as much as some of us do. Anyway as I was saying Sister Sue “threw down” yesterday! Here’s the menu, which was quite fabulous for a “nothing special going on” Friday night meal.
The menu:
- Baked chicken wings
- Fried porgies
- Stuffed peppers
- Collards & cabbage
- Macaroni & cheese
- Potato salad
- Tossed salad
- Corn muffins
- 7-Up pound cake & ice cream
And since I was so full that I refused to take a plate when I left, I’ll be going back for round 2 later today! (lol)
I”ll close this out with the words of Pharrell Williams, “Because I’m happy… Clap along if you know what happiness is to you”
