Happy Birthday to Emmy. She is so beaut...Hi Diane. Happy Birthday to Emmy. She is so beautiful. The "joy" photo is a definite keeper. <BR/>There is no Pokeweed in Alaska. I lived there many years and studied the flora of the state. No. Poke. Salad. <BR/>I was disappointed. When my kids were little and we lived in the midwest and South, we always gathered and ate poke. Now that I'm back here in Ohio, I'm afraid to eat things from the roadsides because so many counties are spraying! If I could find some land I knew was not contaminated, bet your boots I'd be out there. I never tried any with the eggs. I love it just the way it comes out, boiled with some ham or bacon. We always boiled off 2 or 3 waters. Do you do that? boy it sounds good.<BR/>We had Pinto Beans for supper on Sunday, too. I had the tail end of a Black Forest ham I cooked them with. We just had bread and salad with it. Love them beans!<BR/>Have you been to see my Mother's day series. I'm doing several articles about mothers and motherhood for May. Come see me.<BR/>Glad, so glad God is protecting you and your family from this wild weather.<BR/>Love,<BR/>Nancynancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16587048072191384586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21736979.post-84403310955259919682008-05-06T00:52:00.000-05:002008-05-06T00:52:00.000-05:00tooo sweet!!!tooo sweet!!!MightyMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02563721884001643857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21736979.post-71132327635349063262008-05-05T21:05:00.000-05:002008-05-05T21:05:00.000-05:00Well I can't wait to ask my dad about poke salad. ...Well I can't wait to ask my dad about poke salad.

Hard to believe since so many of you in the south eat it! lol I finally found a picture of it...now I know what poke salad is:-)<BR/><BR/>I've printed out Ducky's Poppyseed Bread recipe...I love poppyseed muffins so I know I'd love that bread!! <BR/><BR/>I heard on the news about the terrible storms that were hitting your part of the world and thought of you and Karen right away. So glad to hear that you stayed safe...those tornadoes touched down close to home though, yikes! <BR/><BR/>Yes, it is hard to believe that Emmy will be 1 year old already...I so love these pictures and that last one cracked me up! lol Give her a gunbelt and she looks like a cowboy ready to draw! hehe Love it!! xoxoCarole Buranthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05497329055251626140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21736979.post-28039228426818208842008-05-05T08:16:00.000-05:002008-05-05T08:16:00.000-05:00I still say she looks just like her Grammy. ;o)I still say she looks just like her Grammy. ;o)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21736979.post-14588225165687724702008-05-05T08:10:00.000-05:002008-05-05T08:10:00.000-05:00I hope by now the storms have passed.Wish we could...I hope by now the storms have passed.<BR/><BR/>Wish we could get poke out here but no such luck.

I haven't had Poke Salad in years. I'm like you, I like mine with the scrambled eggs better. When I was married the first time, me and my then MIL would go out in the Spring and pick poke salad. I could make a meal just out of the poke salad and cornbread. The poppy seed bread sounds delicious and I've never had any that I'm aware of. I may have to check our your recipe site and get the recipe for it. I've got a footlong chicken terryaki sandwich from Subway in the fridge for my supper tonight. I just got thru having some chicken gizzards that I brought home from Jonesboro last night. I had a craving for some of KFC's chicken gizzards and livers, so I bought me a pint of both. LOL. Should last me a couple of days. No one else in our Family likes them, so I have plenty for me. LOL. The girls ate some Ramen Noodles ealier. There is a few cheeseburgers left from Friday night that I cooked, so if they get hungry, they can heat them up one. I have had a toothache since last Monday night, and I have been taking some antibiotics and Ibuprofen pills for it. It's still not better, but hopefully it will be all better by sometime this week. Friday was a bad day wasn't it? It never got bad here, but the girls had to go to the Tornado Safe Shelter at School a couple of times tho. The School even held them a little past time of when School was to get out. Usually the girls get home from the bus around 3:45p.m., but it was 4:00p.m. when they got home on Friday. I have an Aunt that lives in Etowah and her and her husband and their property are okay. My Sister drove out there on Friday afternoon and seen all of the damage. She said it wasn't pretty. I also seen pictures and video's of the one from outside of my hometown of Lepanto. My Dad said they sounded the sirens there on Friday. They never sounded the sirens here on Friday tho. I think one went North of us up around Monette as well but didn't touch down that I'm aware of. Earle did get hit hard. I think they said it was an EF-3 tornado that hit Earle. I used to have some Ex relatives that lived in Earle, but I don't know if they still do or not. Been a long time since I've been to Earle. Ryan, Sarah, and Chris all did a great job in covering the severe weather on Friday. I know they were exhaused by the afternoon tho. I do appreciate them so very much. It doesn't seem like Miss Emmy will be a year old on Thursday. She looks like she has grown some since I last saw her. I know yall are excited about her first birthday party. I remember when our girls had their first birthday party. It was like a big celebration. I am looking forward to seeing the pictures you take of the birthday party. I posted last Sunday about our oldest daughter's birthday party and then I posted this morning as well. Take care my friend and have a great day. May God Bless You and Yours. Please eat plenty of that poke salad for me.

Anyway, we are leaving the campground in Chelan, WA today to drive to one at Winthrop, WA. We will just spend one night there, then head over the now open (it closes every winter due to too much snow, but opened May 1st) N Cascades Hwy that drops us right in our town. We were told to try eating at the Road Kill Restaurant in Winthrop and plan to do that today, if we can find the restaurant. And Winthrop is a very small town, so if it has re-opened after the winter, we should be able to find it.Dickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12381970360203140143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21736979.post-54169618549861131112008-05-04T07:58:00.000-05:002008-05-04T07:58:00.000-05:00Diane, I am really glad that everyone from your f...Diane, I am really glad that everyone from your family were not injured from the tornados.
