Went home to see my mama today. We tried to get together this past week, but with all the doctors' appointments and drama, it just didn't work out.
Could not have asked for a more beautiful day. Sunny and warm with a bright blue Carolina sky. Mama cooked lunch for my brother, sister, and their families. And when I say Mama cooked lunch, it was a spread.
Fried chicken (she cooked 3 chickens and my mama cooks the best fried chicken hands down, in the .....well anywhere!)
Country style steak with deadly good gravy
Mashed potatoes
Green beans and butterbeans cooked together and seasoned to perfection
Home grown Silver Queen corn
Chicken pastry
Biscuits
Oven corn bread (this is the sleeper....way too good)
Deviled eggs
SWEEEEET Tea!
Pig Pickin' Cake
Pecan pie (Both desserts made by Mama!)
We had a fine time catching up and just enjoying a little family time together. Sometimes, you just have to put your eyes on someone and your arms around them.
Thank you Mama for a wonderful meal and and wonderful day!
