A Mess of Greens

In case y'all don't know a unit of quantity for greens are called a mess. It's used for turnip greens, mustard greens, and collard greens. I even heard it used for fish. Like he caught a mess of fish. Now a mess ain't got no set down amount to it. A mess are usually enough to make a meal. So it depends on how big the family the mess are for as to how big the mess turns out to be. I reckon that don't come true when you talking about fish. Then what a mess are figures only by how good the fish is biting that day. We got this little Bar BQ house in Harper what are named Mamma's Bar BQ. I heard a fellow ask one of mamma's daughters what were waiting on him, "How many ribs come with the rib plate?" And she told him either three or four depending on how mamma's hand fall. Well that's sums up the best way to tell what a mess turns out to be: It all depends. Below are a mustard green leaf.
