The cast completely covered my broken leg and went halfway down the other leg. It came all the way up to my chest, so I could not move at all from my waist down. Word somehow got to Phil. At any rate, he found out and rushed home from his offshore job. He came to the hospital and started yelling at Kay for letting me break my leg, as if there was anything she could have done about it.
He even spent the night in the hospital with me until I was allowed to go home. Jerry brought me one of the roller seats that mechanics use to work on cars. I rolled around our trailer on the seat for three or four months, bumping into everything in the house.
My aunts and uncles tell me they still remember me rolling around the seat in the yard, trying to keep up with my brothers and cousins. I must have looked like an ape trying to navigate the creeper with nothing but my arms!
I remember that part being pretty fun, but my brothers just remember the smell. They say that cast stunk like crazy! You can imagine the smell after a summer in the Louisiana heat in a full-body cast.
The doctors cut a hole out of the back, and Alan remembers having to carry me to the bathroom every time I had to go. It was rough. I probably should apologize to him for that one. Things were okay for a while, but Phil was still drinking a lot, and one rainy night during a drinking binge, Phil told Kay he wanted her to take her sons and leave. He said he was sick and tired of all of us and wanted to live his own life.
I was really too young to remember many of the details, but I know Kay was very worried that she was about to lose her husband and her sons were about to lose their father. I make beans every time we make or buy a ham—the ham bone is the key. You will find hunks of that ham when it cooks off the bone that you never knew existed, and they are delicious.
Never throw a ham bone away! Rinse beans and transfer to a large pot with ham bone and 6 cups water. Make sure the water covers all the beans.
In a skillet, heat olive oil and cut-up bacon over medium heat. Stir cooked vegetables into beans. Season with bay leaves, cayenne pepper, parsley, and Cajun Style Seasoning. Bring mixture to a boil and then reduce heat to medium and cook 4 to 6 hours, or until beans are tender. Check every 2 hours and add more water if needed. Cut sausage into slices and brown in skillet on medium heat with a teaspoon of olive oil. Stir sausage into beans toward the end of cooking time and continue to simmer for thirty minutes.
Add brown sugar to taste. In a saucepan, bring 4 cups water and rice to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.
Serve beans over steamed white rice and add plenty of Louisiana Hot Sauce. About The Authors. Willie Robertson. Korie Robertson. Product Details. Related Articles. Resources and Downloads.
