Remembering McCulley Hill For, Robbie Mooney Russell May 5, 1909 - August 23, 1966 Red juice dripping from my fingers as I slice vine-ripe tomatoes. Speckled butter beans slowly bubbling on the back burner. Cutting lemons in half to squeeze into Eagle Brand milk. Chicken frying crispy on the front burner. Pouring corn bread into a hot, greased cast iron skillet. Mashing Irish potatoes before adding butter and a dab of Pet milk. Mama is frowning at the pot where she is stirring the sauce for banana pudding, a few drops of sweat popping out on her nose. Quickly now, don our dresses for church. It is Sunday morning on McCulley Hill, and it is our turn to feed the preacher. August 9, 2014 Bettina Cardella (aka Betty June Russell)
