HappyGirl, I am really enjoying your story! Thank you!

When I make bean soup, I use either ham hocks or a left over ham bone. My husband prefers pink eye beans (some people call them soldier beans).
I add chopped onion, chopped garlic and salt & pepper to taste.
If I don't have any pink eye beans on hand, I use the 15 bean mix commonly found in grocery stores.

This one isn't from a book.
It was handed down from my great grandmother.
Sugar Cookies
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup sugar
1 cup lard
3 eggs well beaten
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon baking soda
Flour just enough to stick together. Real soft dough. Roll thin, cut, sprinkle with sugar.
Bake in real hot oven.
She cooked on old coal fired stove until the day she died. We asked her what a real hot oven was in todays terms, (meaning 1970's)
she replied, "Oh, around 400 degrees."
My family likes these frosted, instead of sugared.
