Cooking won’t make cauliflower, liver, or pumpkin palatable.
So, tripe, chitlins and squid are out of the question?
How about sauerkraut?
“So, tripe, chitlins and squid are out of the question? How about sauerkraut?”
Yeah, I forgot those things too.
Wife is German so we do a lot of kraut. She’s crazy though. She takes kraut, stirs it into her mashed potatoes, and covers it with gravy. I think that’s the same recipe the Israelites used to make bricks for Pharaoh.
Personally, I think kraut is a waste of good cabbage. I like mine sauted with onions.
YOU LIKE CABBAGE, ONIONS...?!!!
I’m....speechless
“YOU LIKE CABBAGE, ONIONS...?!!! I’m....speechless”
Why? When have I said that I don’t like good food? Cabbage and onions with a bit of crumbled bacon and maybe some corned beef, now that beats the hell out of squid.
Government sucks. :(
If it’s considered food, I generally like it unless it’s bad cooking (too salty, burned etc) Not too crazy about guts however.
I like all the popular ethnic cuisines, and there are some I have yet to try. Guess I’ll stay the hell away from moslem cooking.
Thanks wildbill.
I think they simply raise them in square boxes. :-)
In college, I visited a friend who’s dad raised his tomatoes in special square frames so they would fir the sandwich bread
This is a link to a Free Republic discussion on federal laws and seed exchanges. They are subject to both state and Federal Regulation. The third link is to a good in depth article on the subject.

And another good article:

The advantages of seed exchanges is that they ensure the continuation of varieties that have little commercial demand, like tasty heirloom Tomatoes that splat in a 3 foot fall and lose their quality within 3 or 4 days, or odd vegetables like claytonia or cardoon.) They are also a wonderful expression of community and sharing.
The advantage of buying seed from a reputable dealer is that they have an economic incentive to ensure that the seed is viable and of the species and variety advertised. They will usually attempt to sell varieties that are disease and insect resistant. If they fail to do this they are punished because people stop buying and they go out of business.
“There is no such thing as “delicious†squash.”
Ever had Spaghetti Squash with some awesome tomato sauce? Wonderful!
This sounds so good! Thanks for sharing these tips! I love growing squash but if it actually yields anything, I never know what to do with it. LOL!
I don't often use words like "Stalinist," but somehow that comes to mind., I remember how we ussd to laugh about stupid USSR regulations.
MOre and more, we're them.
But tell me, what can we do? Refuse? Resist? Rebel? Re-plant? They're gonna put you in jail for this?
Seriously. Tagline.
“When seeds are outlawed, only outlaws will have seeds”
Gardening as an act of rebellion! Time to plant!
Spaghetti squash?
Now, I just had a truly delicious dinner.
We stared with a very dry bombay sapphire martini with a twist followed with a wonderful salad for a first course, baby greens, roasted walnuts, baked pears, balsamic vinaigrette dressing, with gorgonzola cheese, dried cherries, and red onions.
The second course was a medium rare ribeye, topped with gorgonzola crumbles and cracked black pepper and steamed asparagus.
The dessert course was a cheese plate with very well aged gouda, gorgonzola (I like gorgonzola), and brie. The plate was accompanied with the rest of the baked pears, cherry preserves, walnuts, and dried cherries.
The wine was a 2013 Round Point Estates Cabernet Sauvignon (93 points).
And you guys want to talk about squash, cauliflower, and liver?
I’m in. Oh, Brother, I am IN! I’m ordering by first 2016 seeds tomorrow!!

Au contraire my dear Sir. Yellow squash with lots of butter and white onion and a very good dose of fresh cracked pepper/sea salt to taste - cooked to medium firm. Eeeemmmm good!
There’s so many laws on the books, these days, that I figure we have all violated a few by lunch time and didn’t even know it.
I just let the Bible be my guide and try to be nice to the neighbors and otherwise keep my nose clean and hope to be ignored.
