What is your favorite Vegetable ?
Spinich, but I really like most veggies.

What is the one (or two) veggies you never ever want to see on your plate?
I'm with Ron it's gotta be BEETS.

Is there a veggie you won't eat, but dip it in batter and the fryer and "well what do you know" it is not so bad ?
Like a lot of tempura cooked veggies, bit not BEETS.

Nummies:
Snow peas fresh from the vine
Green beans the same
Broccoli
Raw spinach
Sauerkraut (does that count?)
Carrots
Celery
Corn on the cob

How many do I get to choose? I forgot. And I think I forgot a few.

No-no's:
Cooked spinach
Asparagus
Zucchini - how does anyone actually enjoy this stuff?
Okra unless it's cooked correctly
Anything slimy (see above for reference)

I was late for getting up this morning! I've doing the insomnia bit again. It hasn't been this bad in years so I finally took 1/2 of a Walsom Wednesday night (did no good at all) and another last night. Actually got a nights rest and slept until almost 9:00!

I am still goofy from the pill. Those things really mess with me. I learned quickly to not take a whole one. I always cut them in half.

Oh wait a minute ... maybe that's appropriate!
LOL.. well I used to love Corn Flakes when I was a kid, and based on the old saying "You are what you eat", that might explain why I'm corny AND Flakey...

When I was a kid, it was toasted corn muffins, toasted English muffins, toasted bagels, etc ... which probably explains why I often feel toasted!

What is your favorite Vegetable? I'd have to go with cauliflower. Safe to think that tomatoes and avocado are fruits, right? Since they have seeds.

What is the one (or two) veggies you never ever want to see on your plate?
Please... no more cooked carrots! Raw carrots are fine, but when ya cook 'em and make 'em mushy...gah! Now I might revise this when I get old and lose all my teeth.

Is there a veggie you won't eat, but dip it in batter and the fryer and "well what do you know" it is not so bad ? I never eat onions... except for onion rings. I blame it on an experience with homemade potato salad once. I took a spoonful and when I began eating it I discovered it was nothing but onion. Had to be polite and eat it and I haven't eatin' onion on anything since. But onion rings... Mmmm. Oh... and the cheap kind, not the beer battered kind. They gotta have those little crunchy morsels on the outside! And when I make homemade onion rings, I dip them in pancake mix! Best onion rings ever!
