Lol, AG! I'm sure it wasn't funny at the time though! Guess it's an acquired taste! I'll have to try them if I ever get down south!

Seriously my dad loved boiled peanuts. When we would visit our relatives in FL one of his favorite pasttimes was to go to the flea market and walk around after picking up a bag of boiled peanuts. I never developed a taste for them and I will try them every once in a while. :yuck:
I've actually had my mom go to the local flea market just to get a baf of them. Give me a cup full and 20 oz Dr. Pepper and I'm on cloud 9 for a while. :) :angel:

No, it wasn't. For some people, they are an aquired taste. Sometimes, you get some nasty ones that are immature or just don't taste right.
I don't know about up there in MO, but here local Walmarts sell canned ones. This is the brand they sell.

Whoah, AG, sorry I called out the Carolina boiled peanuts; obviously GA is the king of peanuts for you! lol...:thumbsup:

"Killing" time until 10pm ET where I await Mort Sahl's presence every Thursday on Periscope (as opposed to me going from Michigan to SF, which I did do to meet him).. If anyone loves social satire, you can check him out through his twitter page /mortsahlsays
In the meantime, just listening to the Eagles of course (currently at "Is It True") and catching up on some reading here :)

I'll eat any boiled peanuts, but nothing beats local ones, especially when the peanuts come from my cousins' farm. :)
Re: What Are You Doing Right Now
AG95 - you and my dad would have gotten along great! :) Except y'all might have been fighting over the last peanut. :hilarious:
My other dislike for boiled peanuts besides the taste is that they are so darn messy! But I know I am probably in the minority since everybody else in my family LOVES them!

Lol, that's probably true!
The juice is what makes them so good, imo.
Re: What Are You Doing Right Now
Sitting on the couch being bored. Got too cold to sit outside but there's nothing for me to do inside either. I can't even unload the stupid dishwasher.
I want to watch F1 qualifying but I saw the results and watching will spike my blood pressure.
I did read 2 books this week. If you asked me what they were about I couldn't tell you.
Oh wait...Bristol is on tonight. Don't care who wins that race.

Today is a "be lazy, do nothing" day. I'm snacking on trail mix and watching Murder, She Wrote. :)
