I am geezing in angst here.... I thought "several bowls" was  "several
bowels" at first glance.... :)  but that would be for pinto beans.  I don't
think so with black-eyed peas.    Isn't it called "hopping
john"---black-eyed peas in canned tomatoes with corn  and or homney  ??
A friend of the flamily from Maryland cooked it up for us during several New
Years ago.....    ---ric  (the r stands for the r in southern boy,  born in
Staunton Va. Jan 4, 1947)
 ps   Its boiled cabbage actually...... : (   , with a sauce I don't care to
get the recipe that my mother used.    and don't forget the lima beans.
