How to cook Peas? zipper,lady,etc.

I'm a southern native, yet I have never been real good at cooking peas!
---
But for Xmas, I said I'd bring a bunch of mostly lady peas ----
I plan to include some ham seasoning -
I understand I should bring them to a boil, just for about 3 min -
then cover & let em cook (on simmer) to about 45 min.
Does this sound correct?
Also - Could I cook em THE DAY BEFORE???? or must they really be that same day?
OMG, I LOVE Lady peas!!!!
thank you!
But do you think I could do em day before?
or do I really need ta do em that morn?
thanks!
Actually, I did as was recommended --- but they never turn out well. I noticed in our big group - that that was the one item a lot of folks left on their plates!
Guess I won't do em next year - but I do need to be able to cook em -
I was going to ask my hubby what was wrong w/them - see if he'd give me an honest answer.....
Any ideas? I do not think they were under nor over done. Put ham & bacon seasoning in em.
They didn't taste weird to me - yet they were also not great......
