Regards!

this is it...Rhubarb - Wikipedia

you've seen it
it grows everywhere and you can find it frozen even at aldi
though I think ours only carries the strawberry blend

thank goodness it's not hot long enough to grow okra here
we get ours from a friend in Arkansas

pickled, boiled, fried deep-fried
it makes gumbo gumbo

just remember you eat the food not the name
but I guess they do call testicles oysters

Hi Robert. I have been watching and chuckling for months and months, but never felt quite confident enough to jump in. The longer I waited, the harder to jump. Then I realized that I am just " silly " as the rest of you on this thread.

I won't necessarily post often, but I will always be watching.

You can sit it with Hattifnatt.

We'll try to keep the discussion of ersatz cheese to a minimum.

Much appreciated Jim. I am not up to speed yet with many of the colloquial terms, but not knowing what I am talking about has never stopped me from talking !!

bertwert · 03-03-2017, 08:37 PM
