Prosperity

That's what black eyed peas are supposed to bring if you eat them on New Years Day. So, Mama picked some up at Trader Joes a couple of weeks ago. She didn't know that the neighbors were going to send over some Hoppin John. So, she found this recipe for Gumbo and with a few changes (Tofurky sausage, plus a little olive oil, veggie broth, omit parsley, paprika, bay leaves and file powder, add cajun seasoning), we had a meal that will serve us a few dinners. Now we'll have to see how the rest of the year goes.
