We spent NY Eve watching the first three episodes of "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel".
I fell asleep the last hour. We then had popcorn and champagne and watched Dick Clark's NY Eve. I can't take much of it so I am going to try and find a movie.

So I got a nice sliced ham and cut the meaty bone end off. You know the end that is never sliced and hard to get the meat off. I have a butchers bone saw that I used to cut the bone. I cooked it with the black eyed peas and the meat just fell off the bone and tasted just like ham shanks or ham hocks, plus there was a lot more meat for future meals. We also had collards and cornbread.

We had eggs benedict for dinner. I didn't like it. We used Jones brand Canadian bacon and I thought it tasted metallic. Katie didn't eat. She drank Bloody Marys. I had one sip of just the Mrs. T's base and got a stomach ache. Can't tolerate the spice in it.

Our New Year's celebration was directed by my sister-in-law, Elaine. Chuck use to be a very good cook but he let Elaine take the reins in the kitchen. She's a born & bred Southerner so it was a lot of fun to observe how she cooked traditional southern dishes.
The first evening we were there she had a ham and made a 'tried & true' southern squash casserole. Everything was really tasty. Unfortunately, I must have been tired from the drive and never thought to grab my phone to take any pics.
But I did get some shots of our New Year's Day 'good luck' meal:
Blueberry marinated pork tenderloin with blueberry salsa, black eyed peas, collard greens and mashed rutabagas with a skillet of southern cornbread. I don't normally go for 'seconds', but the collards and black eyed peas were worth moaning over a too full belly!
And I learned something new ~ Southern black eyed peas are wonderful when you top them with raw onion and a spoonful of chow chow relish!
