And for the record, my father-in-law was from the U.P. in Michigan and he LOVED them! Then again, I say Pee-can and he'd always tell me that's what he carried in his boat. I then referred to them as "nuts".<br /><br />One slight correction Sir: they're peanuts, not a bowling ball. Sounds more like "Bald" peanuts for those with a deeper southern accent than even I have. :) Probably why baby Bro thought they were "bald headed p-nuts".hopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03306622656461205674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1819635251895015897.post-20371744022863988162012-02-09T15:48:47.786-05:002012-02-09T15:48:47.786-05:00Bowl 'em till you can stand your spoon up in &...Bowl 'em till you can stand your spoon up in 'em, I say.Doctor FTSEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10052101566471519778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1819635251895015897.post-41514342386689430202012-02-09T15:08:52.970-05:002012-02-09T15:08:52.970-05:00And sometimes truckers pee in bowls, the ones the ...And sometimes truckers pee in bowls, the ones the pay-nuts are bowled in.<br /><br />xoxoJannie Funsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11595786402510366043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1819635251895015897.post-39877861512727984772012-02-09T14:15:07.727-05:002012-02-09T14:15:07.727-05:00Don't think I've ever had boiled peanuts, ...Don't think I've ever had boiled peanuts, dry roasted yes.

Fried okra, however, rules. I'm not eating raccoon though--we have a deal--I don't eat them and they don't try to eat me.
