Alright Roland, what is it with all these weird veggies??  Potatoes, carrots and beans I can cope with but Okra?

okra is NOT weird! It is very good! good grief people!

I can't believe you don't know okra!

[injest]

some pics and opinions of okra...

"We love okra, but we know that it is one of the most polarizing veggies we offer--people either love it or hate it. Well, even if you don't like its taste, you surely must agree that okra is a beautiful plant."







(of course not everyone likes the okra...)

"okra is the Devil's vegetable; it's a tasteless green tube of gluey snot"

Now THAT's a purty flower, but I don't know if'n I would like ta even try "tasteless gluey snot"

Might just take it off the menu in the future ...

Well of course! I want an unbiases neutral pallet tastin it, before I expose my own to the veg!! Besides, you'll be in the neighbourhood way before I ever will.

What are friends for?

Ummm, Jess, Could you please translate. 

Maybe I should put in an order for pavlovas, dampers, lamingtons, chocolate crackles and vegemite sandwiches.  Preferably not all together!!

Oh well, if you insist on putting it that way Roland, I suppose I'll have to give it a go just for you.  But you'll have to promise to come and rescue me if I end up in hospital with food poisoning!!

Hey Joce, you know I'd do just that in a jiffy (if'n I didn't have my fingers crossed behind my back!)

For the curious ones out there, the temperature stayed quite high (compared ta the last 2 months, anyways) overnight. Sun came up and it was still 11 C (52 F) and it will hover around that tempeature all day (through drizzle, sun & heavy rain), allowing all but snowbanks ta melt. However, freezin temperatures are expected overnight tonight.  

[Sheriff Roland]

It's that time a day again ...

Taday's special du jour is

Rodeo Ribs

served with mashed taters and greens (no okra, promise!)

Enjoy!
