Pea Green Soup

Retta made a big crock pot of ham and green pea soup this morning. She loves chopping the lettuce and celery, it makes her feel very grown up. If she continues at this rate, I should be able to turn over all of the cooking duties by age eight. Yippee.

Today's cooking adventure led to a reminder of the joke that has been passed down for generations.

Q. Whadya have for breakfast?  A. Pea green soup.........

You remember don't you? I remember my Mom telling me one day in the kitchen of the Culligan House in Laurel, Montana. I thought is was the funniest thing I had ever heard.

No generation gap here...Retta and Musa have been laughing themselves silly with it all morning. Can't wait for dinner tonight!
