This-Or-That 10/19/2002

Today I'm going to try my hand at This-Or-That Tuesday!

1. Apples or pears? Apples, apples, apples! Granny Smith especially. (Because I had a Granny who was a Smith and because you can't beat the way they make your face all puckery!)
2. Oranges or grapefruit? Grapefruit, really cold from the fridge-- eat it like an orange-- peel it!
3. Broccoli or cauliflower? Oooh-- broccoli for sure. With a little hollandaise sauce my Mom makes. Yummy.....
4. Green beans or lima beans? Green beans definitely. When I think of lima beans I have flashbacks to school lunches with the horrible bland half-raw lime-green limas. Yeccch.
5. Winter or summer squash? Yellow summer squash like my Mom makes it with Velveeta and butter... mmmmm
6. Blueberries or strawberries? Strawberries-- blueberry skin stuck in one's teeth is not at all attractive.
7. Tomatoes or potatoes? Tomatoes from my Granddaddy's garden-- still warm from the sunshine and sliced with salt and pepper. .o(drool)o.
8. Peaches or plums? Chilton County (AL) peaches from a roadside stand,hands down.
9. Peas or carrots? Carrots. Lots of crunchy cathartic (sp?) goodness. Nice to imagine the baby carrot is the head of an obnoxious parent (my students', that is)
10. Asparagus or corn? Corn from Granddaddy's garden... in midsummer it grows ten feet high and waves in the breeze on his back acreage. Seems just as tall now as when I was five...

Mmmm... all this talk is making me hungry and kitty is insisting that I go to bed. Will be dreaming of fresh corn and tomatoes...
