I LOVE fried breaded okra! But not slimy okra in other dishes - ick!
And I like breaded fried tomatoes and breaded fried egg plant and breaded fried mushrooms, and breaded fried onions and probably breaded fried anything.

It's been hiding...because we all thought it was going to go away. I feel like singing that song..."This is the thread that never ends, yes it goes on and on, my friends...some people started writing it not knowing what it was, and they'll continue posting on it forever just because this is the thread that never ends...."

Well it's about time you got here! Yep, it sounds like you're just a breaded person.

Yes, there is a Byerly's about 15 miles away. I could stop in next time I go by. Of course knowing Byerlys, I may have to take out a loan to get the food.

Gee, don't ya think that in a world full of troubles, tragedies and trials, it's nice to have a place to go and just think about ONE nice thing???

Darn, that song is probably never going to leave my head today. (no pun intended) I remember hearing it on Lamb Chop when my kids watched it.

Or, maybe I should check my local grocery and see if they carry it... DUH.

Brrrr.. It was 75 here yesterday, but today we have thunderstorms with a high of 45. That's the thing about Texas weather, if you don't like it, just wait awhile and it will change That means it's always perfect weather for OKRA

I used to live really close to one...it IS expensive, but they have stuff you can't get other places. Plus, when it's so close to home, it's worth paying a little more for the convenience...except when you get addicted to their specialty items, like I did-the M&M cookies are my FAVE, and I love their thai chicken peanut pasta salad and of course their frozen soups. Luckily, our regular grocery stores down here carry their frozen soups for less than they sell them for!!!

I know for a FACT that Lamb Chop DOES love okra.

Hmm, I wonder if Wal Mart carries any type of frozen okra product. I have to go there today.... (If I can get out the driveway and up the hill after our snowfall) I'm going to check. You guys are killing me with all this talk.

I have seen it at my Walmart! They have breaded frozen okra that you just fry up like french fries! YUMMY! Don't forget the ranch

The only kind I saw at this WalMart was the chopped up plain okra. (frozen) Kaya and I looked and looked and didn't see any. Then we checked at our local Cub Foods and I didn't see any breaded there, either. This is getting ridiculous.
