My mama is one for the record books. She has gone through so much past and present. Haven't we all? As a child, I've seen all she's endured considering herself and her children. She birthed seven living children, two within the same year. Yes, a daughter in January and a son in December. We always ask Gramma how in the world she did that. Gramma simply says "She went out and got pregnant right after having the other one." Oooookay. Nuf said perhaps?
Indeed I learned most my cooking skills from my mama. If you need a variation of cooking chicken let me know. As Bubba Gump had his plethora of shrimp creations, so did my mama with her chicken dishes. Of course, the best was fried chicken. My favorite growing up was the drumstick. Now, it's the wing. Go figure. Anyway, you may wonder why I elaborate on her chicken so much? Because we grew up 7 deep (7 children), didn't have much, and she sure could stretch meals with that chicken. Don't get me started on pork.
I thank God for the strength I gained from her. I thank God for the lessons I learned from her. I thank God for my mama.
