Applesauce is for desert, Cathy. It don't have ta be good fer ya. :p
Someone musta' pulled ma leg when they says that apples eaten raw's bes fer us'n folks. It makes me feel so much better to know it just ain't so! :oP.S. I was just remembering when I lived in Alabama, there was one cafe we used to eat at that had these paper place mats that were Maps of the South and had "southern slang" words explained on them. I used to get a kick out of them.
One term I always loved that my deceased Mom-in-Law used to say was "I wrenched out my dish towels" we'd laugh and she would grin and get a little spark in her eye knowing her English was way off, she was proud of her southern heritage and was a fabulous cook! Nobody fried chicken and made banana puddin' like her! After my family left Miami we had a culture shock by moing to a southern Alabama town. The same area where author Fannie Flagg grew up! It is very popular tourist destination now. I love the South, an southern cookin'
Hey, this sounds really good. I'm kind of new here still and wanted to say hello. Mama Mangia, you said "cooking apples." I really want to try make an attempt at this, but want to make sure I get the right kind of apples. Would regular red apples that you pick up at the grocery story be fine for this? Any suggestions?
