😋 Bon Appetit!
Once again, this is proof positive that no matter what it is... if you can't find it in a store, you can always find it somewhere via the internet and kudos to Instacart this time. Just another southern delicacy my dad used to make from time to time, and I also enjoyed them during summer visits at my grandmother's house in Bainbridge, GA. I would buy them in brown paper bags from a nearby store whenever I got the chance. Some people call them "Wet Peanuts" too, but l love 'em just the same!

📺 The Untold Story of Ed Sullivan
Ed Sullivan rewrote the rules of television and changed American pop culture forever. The new documentary "Sunday Best," which premiered on Netflix July 21st, immortalizes the TV icon’s legacy of championing Black entertainers when it wasn’t cool to do so. It was a place that Black people could go on Sunday nights to see people who actually looked like them for the first time in history. The cultural significance is partly what inspired Sullivan’s granddaughter, Margo Precht Speciale, to delve deeper into this aspect of his life and show. Her ten-year film project began after the 2014 death of her mother, Elizabeth "Betty" Sullivan, Ed's only child. - HUFFPOST

🕊 Message For Mom
At this time, five years ago today, it was discovered that you quietly slipped away and left this world behind. There is never one day that goes by when you do not cross my mind, and you will live on in my heart forever. Rest peacefully in paradise.

🎶 ❤️ #FBF Best of Your Heart ❤️🎶
Don't let them get the best of your heart, leave the rest up to love and you'll be takin' care of. Don't let them get the best of your heart, leave the rest up to love and you'll be takin' care of.
Many come to try to tear away your heart, never carin' for you from the very start. Still you wonder if this time could be real, tryin' to figure out if they came just to steal.
Don't let them get the best of your heart, leave the rest up to love and you'll be takin' care of. Don't let them get the best of your heart, leave the rest up to love and you'll be takin' care of.
Time and time again you've listened to a smile, never knowin' what's behind it all the while. You gave yourself away until love is gone, and don't consider that they might be doin' harm.
Don't let them get the best of your heart, leave the rest up to love and you'll be takin' care of. Don't let them get the best of your heart, leave the rest up to love and you'll be takin' care of.
Hey there, let me wipe away that little tear, you tryin so hard to hold back what you really feel. Always look inside the people that you're with, and never hang around those who cannot give.
Don't let them get the best of your heart, leave the rest up to love and you'll be takin' care of. Don't let them get the best of your heart, leave the rest up to love and you'll be takin' care of. Don't let them get the best of your heart, leave the rest up to love and you'll be takin' care of (fade out)...
