I got one of those intact stalks of brussels sprouts* the other day, and Lucy commandeered it as a pet. I had to just let her keep it for a while. I popped the sprouts off overnight and she seemed not to remember her friend.
* I'm coo coo for the brux sprouts now days. I think it's just a good way to eat a lot of salt and pepper and red pepper. Anyway roast them or grill them till brown and crispy, beautiful. Not yr moms mooshy old boiled gross brux sprouts.

I love you Brussels sprouts

I understand, Lucy. I found the stalks pretty fascinating ,too. I never knew they grew that way until London at Burroughs Market on the Cousin's trip.
ReplyDeletei hear when cooked properly, they're delicious. they must be the one thing my parents suck at preparing, because i find them totally gross.
ReplyDeleteI also find them totally gross. I can't even stand the smell of them.
