When it comes to directions I got em in spades. Heck when I was a kid it was soon discovered than without a light on the blackest night ya ever saw I could find north (er any other direction) without blinkin. Made me REAL popular on coon hunts since most coon hunters have about the same amount of sense of direction as a ferret in a room full o diamonds has concentration. . . . Imagine being six years old and getting to stay up till dawn most every weekend. . . . .
ANYWAY
First off Lilred mentioned brown eggs. . . . Are there any other kind? Seriously I won't eat a white hulled egg.
Secondly DEFFINITION TIME - Creek Taters - The creek tater was an invention towards the later part of the last century by a special breed of coonass known as the East Texas coonass. The nomdeplum comes from the tendency of creek taters to be cooked upon the banks of a creek or river during the heavy spring catfish season. creek tater recipies are fairly wide an varied, although those of the same surname tend to use very simliar variations of the process. An example as follows
1 cast iron skillet on an open flame.
add lard, cleaned and sliced taters, chopped onion, salt, garlic, and bell pepper a cup of creek water then cook until the taters are softened.
This particular meal is only suitable when eaten from a paper or enameled metal plate using a tin or plastic fork, or a pocket knife.
Some variations add cayenne pepper or jalapeno pepper as well, however the influx of marriage to yankees and other undesireables within the East Texas coonass clans has caused this to be a less and less frequent occurance.

"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
