Breakfast weather

Breakfast is always tempting,but there is something special that happens when the weather starts to cool down and the wind is blowing and leaves are falling. The aroma of the coffee perking smells so irresistably wonderful and the smell of golden flakey biscuits almost ready to come out of the oven just overtakes you and you reach for the butter and that beautiful jar of ruby red Mayhaw jelly. What a great way to start the morning! In the past, you could only have Mayhaw jelly if you were fortunate to live where they grew,but that is no longer true. We can ship you the jelly and the biscuit mix and your family can enjoy this delicious southern treat! Write to me at dwainright@gmail.com. For information on pricing and shipping. We handle orders large and small.

Swamp Gravy and Mayhaws

Isn't it interesting how we brand ourselves.! Some places are known for their beautiful mountains or beaches,or for their historic sites,here in Colquitt, Georgia we are known for our Swamp Gravy and Mayhaws. We are also known as a community that cares,we care about each other,we care about our town and we care about the future.



Each one of have also created our own brand,it could be friendly,nice,cool,smart,hard working or something else. Have you ever thought about the brand that you are creating for yourself? It certainly makes me stop and think sometimes. Do unto others as you would have thenm do unto you is the perfect rule!

Murals,Mayhaws and Swamp Gravy

Isn't it interesting that we have taken these foods, Mayhaws and Swamp Gravy and written songs and plays about them. They have become our brand here in Colquitt, Georgia. Who would ever have thought such a thing a few years back. The stories about Swamp Gravy (the dish) tell that the indians first cooked this dish.After they had fried their fish, they poured off all but a very small amount of grease and then they chipped up potatoes and onions in the pan, when these were soft they added tomatoes and maybe a little water to make the gravy . Then the best part, they poured the gravey over their hush puppies and enjoyed it with their fish.
The logic........they took what they had and made something good out of it!
