I wasn’t series about your worldview re: beanie weenies. I just enjoy picking on you :)

Okra and nopalitos (the cactus that looks like a ping-pong paddle with spikes) are pretty slimy. Breaded, deep-fried okra is OK. I still haven’t figured out what to do with nopalitos but I’d like to, because people who eat them find it easier to control their blood sugar. Mr. SG is diabetic, and he can’t stand the stuff *sigh*.

For how many years did you run? I only lasted 13. Do you lift weights or do you rely on your work to keep you in shape? (I’m not in shape.)

Nopalitos: Rinse them very well, julianne and scramble into eggs.

The more you rinse the less slime there is.

They can also be pickled and that cuts the slime factor as well.
