Yes Santa Anna was the dirty varmint that attacked the Alamo killing somewhere between 180 and 250 Texicans. Now I hear there's talk of putting up a plaque or something in his honor? What's that about? Just heard that yesterday. Maybe I heard wrong.

Hi Pert, I hope you heard wrong. I dont feel like any war is something to be celebrated.

Was never taught in my neck of the woods. *shrug*

The Battle of the Alamo was fought between the Republic of Texas and Mexico from February 23, 1836 to March 6, 1836. It took place at a fort in San Antonio, Texas called the Alamo. The Mexicans won the battle, killing all of the Texan soldiers inside the fort.

War is a dirty business.

I start with ham stock and then frozen /left over mashed taters with liquid squeezed out as a thickener. LOVE me some split pea soup BUT hate regular cooked pea's . STRANGE child I be.

Um, if it is ham stock and mashed potatoes, it isn't much like split pea soup is it??

As to the lent thing I have no idea. BUT a couple months to codgertate that

Less nicotine = more money for animal feed and a healthier Twist.

OR pink undies.

Not surprising, there was plenty of Canadian and British Empire history for you to learn.

Ham bone simmering for a few hrs makes a yummy split pea soup. The way I was taught was to simmer the bone til you get some good broth add the dried peas then when they are done take every thing out and puree it . Carrots get put in there somehow after its pureed. They stay in small pieces. I dont remember that part . I never pureed it . The peas made it thick when they were cooked longer and if not I would add some instant mashed potato flakes to thicken it up. And now Im hungry. LOL I cut my mouth up on some way over cooked onion rings today. I knew I would but I was at the drs and I was Hangry !
