Howdy everyone!
Happy New Year!!
2005 was a great year and we're looking forward to an even greater 2006! The Iraqis have held their elections and as democracy and freedom takes hold, it appears the terrorist violence has greatly subsided. We're hoping that the war in Iraq is just about over and that as the Iraqis take over responsibility for their own security, our troops can finally come home. God bless them all. We pray for peace in the Middle East.
On the home front, we see President Bush's numbers on the upswing and our confidence is growing regarding continuing conservative successes in the midterm elections this Fall. Judge Samuel Alito should be confirmed for the Supreme Court in the next few weeks and our hopes for a more conservative court will soon be realized.
September 23, 2006 will mark Free Republic's 10th year anniversary. It's hard to believe that 10 years have passed by so quickly. Time flies when you're having fun. We've been blessed with many successes on Free Republic over the years and are praying for continuing success in the future.
Thank you all very much for making Free Republic the very best conservative site on the web!! FReepers are the greatest!!
May God bless you all with peace and prosperity in the new year and much happiness in all the years to come.

Had an alternative to the blacked eyed. Missus made a wonderful soup with navy beans and collards. Chicken broth with various veggies for the base. With left over pork roast and morning sausage.
I did the absolute best rack of baby backs I have ever done yesterday. Sold on the dry rub.

Mama grew Black eyed peas and made the
BEST BEPs with shelled and green snap stage with Bacon. She made it with ham hocks also but my favorite was bacon.
Do you buy fresh or canned BEPs?

To: trussell
Thank you. I appreciate that more than you'll know!
I'm supposed to spend tomorrow with the grandkids. I planned to take my cheesy potato soup with me but I can't stand up long enough to go finish the fixin's. I fixed the chicken in the pressure cooker last night -- for the chicken and broth. I also use ham, bacon, cheddar cheese, and heavy cream in it. (Seemed like it'd be a good-before-the-low-carb-begins meal.) ;)

Where Judge Souter's real estate properties (Weare and better land near Lebanon) are destined for commercial "eminent domain" in accordance with the Supreme Court decision. So many flags displayed in Weare must be a strong message to Souter!
