“Of course, I coat them with butter before serving.”

I’d eat my left foot if it was coated in butter! ;)

I’ve often wondered who was the first person to look at an Artichoke and say, “I’m gonna EAT that!”

They once thought tomatoes were poisonous.

Eat Snails? Oysters? How about Mushrooms? A Turtle? Corn Smut? LOL!

Here is a magnificent wild apple tree on our property. I look for her bloom every Spring. This shot is from a distance, from my front porch:

This is her in full bloom and full glory. I took the ATV up there for a closer look. The cows usually eat the lower apples when ripe. The upper apples are impossible to get at, due to her height. That tree is easily 40' tall!

Couldn't ask for a more beautiful blue sky as a back drop:

Butter lover here too. My dad used to butter his steaks.

That reminds me. I should can some butter. Did some years ago just to try. It’s controversial.

Being from New England, naturally we ate lobster - with butter. Butter/vinegar mix actually. Cider vinegar of course.

Who was the first person to look at a lobster and say, that looks yummy?
