I like cheese slices with raspberry preserves on bread.

My dad always put jelly or jam on his cottage cheese.

My mother used to fix sausage gravy, biscuits & cantaloupe for breakfast. I fixed it a few nights ago for my husband & I, he had never had it. It was, oh so delicious & he loved it. I am from GA & he is from N. Dak.

oh I'm gonna have to write down some of these odd er I mean interesting, very interesting food combos for brother. He's 58 and I'll bet he would try each and every one of them!

Reading this brought back memories for me. My father was from New Orleans. So when he entered the kitchen to cook, which was not often, unusual meals came out. The most memorable is what I would call a red tomato sauce with onions, bell peppers, spices and thin slivers of tripe, simmered for a very long time and served over grits. It was so good that I still remember it some 60 years later.

DH does this, think that's why I delay getting up on Sunday mornings when he makes himself eggs for breakfast. I really don't like to start the day with food, coffee will do it for me and maybe some toast but looking at eggs, sausage and toast and all that ketsup makes my stomach rumble. Other than that our family doesn't love any odd combos of foods. When DS#3 was in grade school he was good friends with the boy next door who was at our home more than his own. This kid was a good kid and he came with us wherever we went. No matter what I made him for lunch he didn't like, the jam on my P&B sandwich had lumps in it, he didn't like ham, tuna, soup, etc. so I asked him what he liked. P&B with grape jelly and boloney and cheese with mayo, so I made him a boloney and cheese sandwich. Turned out that was wrong because he liked P&B and grape jelly AND boloney and cheese together! Told him he should bring his own lunch tomorrow.

As a child I was often given sugar and butter sandwiches. (My children and grandchildren are horrified!)
Now I love to put dried cranberries on a grilled cheese sandwich. Yum!

I LIVE for the day when Rocky Ford produce hits the local stores.

My former MIL (Papa Fish's wife) always told me the BEST way
to tell when a cantaloupe was ripe and juicy was by smelling the
stem end. If it has fairly strong smell of cantaloupe than it will be
ripe and sweet.

To this day (32+ years later) I still follow that method for picking
cantaloupes, so far that has never failed me. The few times I did
purchase a cantaloupe without it smelling like one they were blah
no flavor, no sweet and hard as rocks.

EDIT -

Never mind I just googled it and see that it is NE of CS.

Now where is Falcon, CO? I have heard of it but never been there
heck for that matter there are MANY places in CO that I have not
been to.
