They get dipped in chocolate in our pastry kitchen, and I love them as jam.parsnips aplentyhttp://parsnipsaplenty.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5172018271137170502.post-62399358834292167452012-06-24T21:05:14.492-05:002012-06-24T21:05:14.492-05:00Jane - wow, maybe there is something to this - but...Jane - wow, maybe there is something to this - but I just don't think I could ever get myself to eat slugs. Blech!!<br /><br />Michael - Those pesky volunteers! Well, I guess it's not always that bad. We've got a couple pathetic tomatoes that we planted, and a couple more very vigorous volunteers that have popped up in the strawberries, kale, and elsewhere. =)<br /><br />Also - I know about the black on black problem. I've tried to fix it before and for some reason Blogger won't let me change the font color of the comments. Grr. <br />One way around is to highlight the text in the comment area. The other way is to click on the comments link and that will open a window with a white background where you can read everything. =) <br />I've been thinking about a blog update anyway, and maybe that will include a different background color!Aimeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04570718941895225222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5172018271137170502.post-88150475119706865532012-06-24T19:57:24.415-05:002012-06-24T19:57:24.415-05:00You might be on to something...

Can you believe I have never been able to get a ground cherry to germinate and if it did, it never grew. See that was because I wanted them too much.Jane @ Hard Work Homesteadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02905658082120445313noreply@blogger.com
