OK here's my peanut story. My Pa was a cop and he'd come home in the middle of the night to check on Mom when she was pregnant with me, cuz my Daddy was over seas. The only thing she ever craved was boiled peanuts. Pa would go back out and pick her up a bag.

So of course it is hereditary that I LOVE boiled peanuts. Mom swears she doesn't want any flowers on her grave, just a patch of peanut plants.

When I met Pearls a few years back, she was a good sport and tried one. She said she didn't care for any more, thanks. I was like boiled peanuts are better then sex! She said well I don't know what kind of sex you've been having then.

My fondest boiled peanut memories are of being a child and my Gigi would take me to the high school football games. Back in the day it was cold or at least cool during football season. She'd buy me a bag of warm boiled peanuts and let me at 'em. Finally she'd get tired of watching me waste so much of the "goody" because I didn't know how to open them properly she'd open them for me.

The other thing about boiled peanuts is....

Waves to Snowy, and yes rav I seem to forget that some things are regional also.
