That should be against the law. Fried okra and fried green tomatoes should be added to the food pyramid.
Oh, yum! Fried green tomatoes! I badgered my local grocery store until they started stocking them out of season, and I get them all year long now, yippee! (Doesn't beat fresh from the garden, but one must compromise in these difficult times...)

Fried okra, on the other hand... sick

You do???? WOW!!! Had no idea! I never heard of them until we moved to Texas so I assumed it was a Texas thing, lol.

They ARE delish! I agree on the Ranch - a must!

Well, we had a deep fry anything kick here a few years ago. They literally tried to deep fry EVERYTHING. Some were a miss, and others a HIT, deep fried pickles, definitely a HIT. The first time I had them was about 10 years ago at a sports bar. Now I am craving them, geez thanx wink

Deep fried pickles

I never heard of them until I was in Mississippi for the SPQ Parade in 2005.
My friend took me to a roadside restaurant that was built in the shape and color of a giant igloo.
It was there, in a giant igloo, that I ate my first, and last, deep fried pickles.
I haven't had one since.
I think I must be in an igloo to fully enjoy that particular treat.

Melody while you are crying about how cold it is in Texas, it was zero degrees F here this morning. With the wind it felt like minus 14 F.

Me and Mr Wondering were both saying a little prayer when we turned that car key this morning!

WH took DD1 to practice yesterday. He left practice for a bit to buy some fried green tomatoes to bring back to me. Wasn't that nice of him?

Is the BS fog the BS's inability to expose? What actually constitutes BS fog?

I personally believe that there are a lot of different components of BS fog. It usually doesn't last very long once they start to get responses and follow the advice given them.

I had BS fog. When I got here, I thought that my WH was having an EA. I didn't think that I would be able to do Plan B. As a matter of fact, here is the very first post I did on MB. http://forum.marriagebuilders.com/u...in=157662&Number=2267292#Post2267292

I had to be told to look for an affair. And then, if you read my current thread, I needed a lot of 2x4s to "get it"

I can't even believe that I was like that then. But I had been gaslighted for 2 years, what should I have been like? I am so glad that I found MB and got out of my own fog.
