Marsha asked about “peawadden.”

I come from Texas and have family roots in Tennessee, so most of what I have
to say regards English spoken in the southern USA.  I’ve always heard that
word pronounced as “peawaddel” with syllabic “l” instead of a syllabic “n”.
This thread makes me wonder if I’ve misheard the word all these years.  I
don’t believe I have, but can anyone confirm that?
