the MaleChild Cooks.....


...On Monday, CityBoy and the male parental unit from up the hill went to a flea market in a near by town......
Papa came home with 3 pounds of raw peanuts for the MaleChild...

So what does the MaleChild do.....


...Tosses them in the big crock pot with alot of Kosher Salt...
Covers them with water ...... locks the lid.....waits patiently....
and makes boiled peanuts......
only took about 24 hours....
but....it is SuperBowl weekend....!!

Hope they last until then......hummmmmmmm.....

Life is Good

  2. I thought it was gonna be done by pressure cooker at first. Would you believe it? Some folk don't like boiled peanuts?

  8. I have tasted them..I didn't like them..at all. I guess you must have to grow up eating them like that or something..we used to bring back cans of them from the south to a friend who loved them. I don't think we can even buy them canned up here:)

  9. Now if he had roasted them I would have found a way to get to your house for the Super Bowl but since he boiled them you all can eat all you want. I tried boiled peanuts a few months ago and will never try again. I am from peanut country too.
