I slow cooked a smoked ham hock, then shredded the meat and used the broth to cook up some blackeyed peas. Stirred the ham in and served it with sauteed brussels sprouts.

New Years Day
We had a quiet, homebody kind of New Years Day ~ watched From Here To Eternity and napped. Dinner was very simple and casual, but oh so good.

i always thought people who ate brussel sprouts willingly had to have something wrong with them. of course that means you must be strange and we would get along very well. i can sneak my brussel sprouts on to your plate so sit beside me at holiday dinner ;)
LOL, I'll gladly take those sprouts off your hands ~ I am one of those freaks who eats sprouts on a regular basis.
Yummm, I've been a big fan of the brussels sprout lately - and what a great traditional new years meal!
I'm afraid I'm one of those people who don't like brussel sprouts but then it could just amount to family/ friend people cooking them in a most depressingly mushy way. I've been too scared to try them again.
The dinner looks like a cozy comfort food kinda meal. :)
