Camp is being held at a local Garden Club that has veggie gardens as well as butterfly gardens and the kids were encouraged to pick the tomatos
I asked one little boy if he had ever tried one he said no. I suggested he try one. lol he said I will if you will Ms karla. (I had never eaten a tomato)
Well lets just say we both spit them out

Last new food/drink you tried that had you saying:

Good morning, Karla & friends! It's been a busy month and I haven't had time to stop by in a while, but I've got just a moment before breakfast, so thought I'd say hello.
Today's Question(s):
Last new food/drink you tried that had you saying:
1. Wow this is really good I need to keep this in "stock"?
Went to a friend's house for lunch yesterday and she served kasha cooked in mushroom broth with daikon and fresh ginger. It was fabulous, and I'll pick some up this weekend.
2. Eww well at least I can say I tried it?
It was some mass-produced prepared food that a friend thought would be good. Too much salt, too much fat, not enough seasonings.... bleah.

Did they?
They're considering it, haven't decided yet.
Inquiring Minds Question:
Have you ever walked out of a movie?
Yes, a long time ago, when my spouse and I were dating.
How come?
I don't remember the name of the movie, but about 15 or 20 minutes in, there was a close-up of someone getting stabbed in the eye. That was enough for me, and I walked out.

1. Wow this is really good I need to keep this in "stock" ?
Lentil soup, not at the store but a local restaurant. I now have it every time Chico makes it
