Do you remember having Pea Salad growing up. Well, I do too, and I just happen to think about it the other day, and made some.

Pea Salad
Ingredients:
Canned peas (also called canned sweet peas), drained
Hard Boiled Eggs
1/4 cup Sour Cream (more if for more than 2 people)
1/4 cup Mayonnaise (more if for more than 2 people)
Cheddar Cheese cut into cubes
Salt and Pepper to taste
I used a few different spices of personal preference.
Directions:
Mix the peas, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Add the cheese cut into cubes, and the eggs cut into small pieces, salt, and pepper.

Old Fashioned Salted Nut Candy
Just in time for Fall, it's the Salted Peanut Candy you remember as a child, and oh so easy to make!
Let's get busy so we can enjoy it tonight!!! There is very little to do, so you don't need a lot of time for this great, out of the past, treat.
First off we need the instructions, and ingredients:
Next you will see the steps I took in the process. At the end you will see that I put it in the oven (at 400) just to get those marshmallows on top toasted, just a few minutes. That is not part of the recipe though. I just liked the look.
1: Half of the peanuts in the bottom of the pan.
2: Melt the butter, and evaporated milk, add the chips and marshmallows, and stir.
3: Pour into pan, and add the other half of the peanuts to the top, and pat down.
4: Chill for 2 hours. All Done, Enjoy!
