I know it’s the middle of the night, but I was still hungry after not having eaten since around 5 this evening. So, I decided to whip up a little late night supper.

First, I peeled a few potatoes (red skin variety), then sliced them about 1/8 inch thick. I place the potatoes, 1/2 sliced onion, a couple tablespoons of butter, and water in a saucepan. I added a dash of pepper and sea salt, then let it simmer while I did some other things.

I sliced up a few yellow squash and about a pint of fresh okra, along with the other half of the onion. I mixed it all together in a bowl with yellow corn meal, salt and pepper to taste. I then fried it over medium heat.

While the other things were cooking, I made a small batch of home made biscuits. Everything got done at the same time, so there was no waiting. I added butter to the tops of the biscuits and sat down with a generous helping of everything on my plate. This was all extremely tasty and satisfying.

When I was finished eating, I made dessert of a biscuit with butter and fig preserves.

This tummy-warming late night supper is just what I needed to get drowsy and go off to bed. Nighty-nite, folks!
