Yes, yes, yes! Boiled GREEN peanuts, makes the world a better place. :p

When I was a wee one and I would go camping with my Granny and Paw-Paw, I remember going down the road and my Granny saying we were leaving a peanut-shell trail to find our way back home.

Thinking about that— one time we were going down the road and my Granny was chewing her gum and she popped it but good!

Paw-Paw starts pulling the camper over thinking we had a blowout. People type -roflmaopimp- I think they got that phrase from us. :p

Great memories! Grandparents are the best!

Well my Pup Pup wouldn’t touch those bald slimy peanuts with a 10 foot pole LOL.

He used to take me fishing regularly and had a stash of beer and 7 oz cokes hidden in a natural spring near the lake in the woods behind his house.
Man those beers were refreshing!

Seriously, Pup Pup rocked

What’s a Paw Paw?

I remember Old man Doyle taught me how to tie flys and make my own spinner baits.

People don’t have time to share anymore :(

My Pup Pup had a like 65 acre place in Ohio with pecans, hickory’s, black walnuts and beech along the alley back to the lake.

We never boiled no nuts.
You roast them. You roast them right on top of that wood they came from

Who ever heard of a boiled Pecan? LOL!

Well, it seems the mason Dixon line is 500 miles wide at times LOL

I swear I had to teach folks around here that Pecan wood is the wood to use for brisket LOL
