The Radish. Do you like?
Edited on Thu Nov-18-04 08:49 PM by JanMichael
I have to admit that I love those little devils.

Some very spicy, some insanely hot, I love them!

No salt either thanks. Plus I think they settle the stomach, what a positive unintended outcome!




PS~ One more beer to go then some tequila...

11. How utterly Slavic!
While I LOVE the potato, yes I do, there are other legitimate veggies. The beet for instance...Maybe some cabbage...

Often too tame from the supermarket.

9. How true. Mass Market grocers are touch n' go with fresh produce.
Nothing quite like some monster spicy radish from a farmer's market or the backyard.

13. Some of those little bastards are HOT!
I like the white ones also. Try a little fresh horseradish and some grated red radish mixed with a tad vinager/dash of salt.

16. On a cracker? No, not a redneck...A saltine?
(Not meant to offend anyone, it's the beer talking.)

That sounds REALLY good. Where did you come up with that?

23. Well hey, if that works for you why not?
My husband usually torments me with garlic, when he eats he stinks the next day and he knows it.

24. Michael said (several times actually) to tell you (and
everyone) that that post was written by me. "Me" being the wife that is being burped on.

Wanna trade for a weekend? I LIKE garlic.

Stephanie

PS..just kidding about the trade...I don't know what I would do without my burping schnookums.

33. Oh - but I like them with a little salt. Yum.
And if we're keeping track of drinks, I had a caipirinha (I am certain I spelled this wrong) and a glass of Shiraz.

34. Salt is good too. And in keeping track of drinks I'm done now...
I finished with three shaken tequila and OJ drinks.

Good night!

39. Radishes make good florettes in salads. n/t
Cut petals into them, put them in icewater for a while, and voila!
