Sweet Goodness From Mississippi

We were given a big box 

of Mississippi Sweet Potatoes!

The sweet couple 

that brought them for us

said, "Y'all were so kind to us 

for letting us hunt on your land last year,

we brought you some of 

the best sweet potatoes in the world!"

So last night we had

sweet potatoes

squash

and 

pork chops

I have never fixed them before,

so I had to do a little looking around

for different recipes first....

I found this one in the ladies guild cook book....

(don't you love the old recipe card I found?)

I was lucky enough to come across

this card on Nana Moon Shop blog

(thanks Danylle!)

you can download it free from her site

if you are interested.

I downloaded her recipe card then

used photo shop to type 

Mrs. D.D. Fokken's recipe

for Boiled Sweet Potatoes on the card

( and this is why it takes me all day to cook supper)

anyhooo....

after several blog land distractions...

I managed to do my own thing with the 

sweet taters...

I wrapped them in foil, baked 1 hour

(along side my squash)

then smothered them 

with butter, brown sugar,

a little salt and pepper,

(isn't that how any

good German cook would do it?)

back in the oven to 

melt it all together....

MMMMMMM!!!!!!

Delicious.
