My Grandfather *always* had a big pot of Boiled Peanuts on the stove
when the family came to visit... simple - salty - wonderful... I would
even eat the small ones with the soft shells (shell and all)... It's a
fond memory/tradition that I will try my best to uphold when I have my
own family...(if I don't kill my girlfriend first)...
