I always buy whole chickens on sale and load the freezer. Usually cut them up and bbq, always save the backbone/carcass and freeze till I have 3 and make soup. Calcium!
This last week I slow roasted in the oven for a couple of hours. The breasts made 4 meals, the thighs made 2 fajita meals, froze the drums and wings for bbq sauce football lunches. So got 8 meals plus several servings of soup - for $5 bucks!

Stopped for Chinese food in the little town of Floresville, Texas. Never been to this place before but it was busy with oilfield trucks and truckers and thought what the heck. It was darn good. Best and freshest I've had in years. $8 with a drink too.

Just kidding man, sounds fantastic. 
Black eyed peas and turnip greens are a traditional meal in the South on the first of the year. Supposed to be good luck for the new year. Not sure where it comes from, but my granny always cooked black eyed peas, and greens (along with other stuff) on new years day.

Well we will be having a ham and mashed potatoes. I'm sure a green bean casserole and probably the wife will make her broccoli cheese casserole. I can't stand it but the kids love it. Smells like *** when it's cooking.

Yeah! That's what my mom told me too. Wonder where that comes from? She forced me to get some black eyed peas because of it.I remember not liking them as a kid, but now I just put some Louisiana hot sauce on em and its all good.
My moms side of the family came from Memphis, Tennessee
