Southern Summer Supper Menu

What could be better than farm fresh produce?  I love summer because our local farmer's market has an ample supply of vegetables and fruits.  First thing this morning, we headed to our local farm market & returned home with a back seat full of fresh fruits & veggies:  blackberries, blueberries, peaches, melons, tomatoes, cucumbers, green beans, butter beans, corn, summer squash, and okra.  Of course this calls for a southern summer supper, in the style of my mama and grandmother!  What's on the menu?  Here it is:

BBQ country style ribs
Chili pepper blue cornbread
Sliced tomatoes and cucumbers
Summer squash casserole with bread crumb topping
Fried okra & potatoes
Succotash (butter beans & corns, maybe with some tomatoes thrown in!)
Green beans topped with new potatoes
Peach Blueberry Cobbler with whipped cream

After washing everything and chopping what needs to be chopped or sliced or diced, supper is on the stove, in the oven, and in the slow cooker!  And it smells divine!
