Happy New Year! Hog Jowl 2009 has come and gone...actually it may never return- more in a moment. Here's Scott in his Bulldog attire after watching the cardiac Georgia Bulldogs defeat Michigan State in the Capital One Bowl...
Dawgs 24 Spartans 12. Back to the food...Scott usually makes bacon for our New Year's Day dinner. This year, he bought some hog jowls. For those of you who are not quite sure what "jowls" are, they are the jowls of the hog. Moving on...Scott fried them up, poured the grease into a pot of turnip greens, and prepared some blackeyed peas too. Alysse made some corn muffins and off we were! Scott says he felt like he consumed enough salt and fat for half of 2009! It was delicious but something that might be good to limit once per year. Next year, Scott is returning to bacon for this New Year's Day occasion.
Hope you all are enjoying the blog and may you all have a blessed 2009. Maybe we will get some snow before spring arrives. By the way, Bella just hopped into my lap...she is asking me to say "Hello" or meow in her language.
That's all for now...again Happy New Year!
