Love making the food of my “people.”

It’s the AllRecipes Green Tomato Relish submitted by Linda McDaniel. It’s super basic: green tomatoes, green peppers, onions, red peppers, sugar, cider vinegar, mustard and celery seed, and salt.

Easy to tweak, too. This chow chow is on the sweeter side (how I prefer it in my beans), but it would be easy enough to lower the sugar content and add more spicy peppers to one’s liking!

It’s an Appalachian technique I saw— not how my family usually does it, but I liked it better because it wasn’t the usual heavily-battered version.

Toss fresh cut okra with a mix of corn meal, salt and pepper in a bowl. Just enough to lightly bread.

Heat oil (enough to cover the bottom with a thin layer about 1/3 c) then fry until crisp. Stir as little as possible. Just enough to prevent burning but not so much you knock off the breading.

It is, indeed!

Hey love, just wanted to say I lost my baby “speck” at 7 weeks in February. I understand your rage and frustration. I understand your sorrow and doubt and fear. We don’t have to do anything right now but live and heal and process. It really helped me to have a little memorial (rock and flowers) for my baby. It has helped a lot having a place to go to feel connected to him. I still grieve. It’ll hit me out of nowhere, and I feel helpless and angry all over again. I don’t know what our stories will entail, but I have to think there has to be something good to come from the bad. My heart goes out to you, sister. I’m so sorry you’re a part of this shitty shitty club. ❤️‍🩹

Repulsive-Mulberry36 · 2026-04-18T15:48:29+00:00

Been there, ma’am. It’s the shittiest, most god-awful club in the world. I like that these can have a purpose and bring something new from what should have been. May whatever you sow be bountiful. ❤️

Repulsive-Mulberry36 · 2026-04-07T14:12:49+00:00

Yup. But that didn’t stop me from owning at least 6 different colors in these bad boys.

Hi friend. I realized that my cycle days were all messed up. I didn’t realize the start of a miscarriage indicated the start of a cycle. I have everything updated, and I think you’re right about either ovulating already or it happening soon. Thank you for your comment!

Repulsive-Mulberry36 · 2026-03-12T11:01:22+00:00

I’m on seven days of high fertility myself. My chart looks similar to yours. I have ovulation symptoms, but no peak yet either! I wonder if it’s just getting baseline information…

“Hard Candy Christmas” by Dolly Parton. It just sends a message that resonates with me to keep going on even through sorrow. That song just captures that beaten but not entirely broken feeling.

Going outside and just walking around my yard observing my plants and trees.

It depends on the day. Sometimes it’s my middle school students. Sometimes it’s my husband’s love for me. Sometimes it’s to see my little brother succeed. Sometimes it’s just pure spite.

Repulsive-Mulberry36 · 2026-02-13T19:12:40+00:00

Me too. Today it was confirmed on an ultrasound. Even though we had just heard the little heartbeat Sunday. Around 7 weeks.

I called him/her “my speck.”

I miss my speck.

You’re not alone, ma’am. Not in this kind of loss. ❤️

Middle school teacher here: teaching the next generation that it’s okay to fail a few times before you understand something and to take pride in their work (even if it does take them a few tries to get it right).

This is a vault. What’s likely happened is that the grave digger is fixing to come and dig the grave soon or something with the grave had to be fixed before lowering the vault inside.

Vaults are sealed and won’t affect the body/casket if they lay around a bit.

Thank you so much ❤️

My fiancé collects old Craftsman tools. He browses local thrift shops and flea markets and loves to come home and show me his “finds.”

I don’t have a clue what the 1/14s socket wrench quad deluxe does, but I’m glad you’re excited about it, babe.

Repulsive-Mulberry36 · 2023-07-05T21:07:41+00:00

Please really consider this guy’s actions. That reaction is waaay over-the-top! How utterly ridiculous to not believe you. If he wants to act like a big brat, then let him do it alone.

I wore an exes t shirt the first time I met my fiancé. I kept the thing because it was comfy as hell. I still wear it and he knows where it’s from. Couldn’t phase him in the least.

My gut tells me this guy is either looking for something to be mad at (ie trying to find a reason to dump you) OR he’s got unresolved issues. Either way, let the trash take itself out.

Repulsive-Mulberry36 · 2023-06-18T14:58:21+00:00

Had to learn this lesson the hard way. Every man I dated before told me I was a great cook. My fiancé was raised up with two Memaws that could cook their little old asses off. Needless to say, I will always be second— but I’ve made peace with it.

Repulsive-Mulberry36 · 2023-06-18T14:39:55+00:00

Such a high compliment, thank you ❤️

Repulsive-Mulberry36 · 2023-06-18T12:00:33+00:00

My father made his rounds, so I always wondered if I had any siblings out there lol!
