  1. Mm...berries. I have a weakness for pretty tableware. Hubby sighs when he sees me buy something new. We have too many plates, sauces, etc, but when I see something colorful and flowery, even if it's only a luncheon plate, just one, I wanna have it!

    And here I am, wanting to simplify. Must..give...away...stuff. :)

    Broccoli-flower..no, never saw that. Would be handy on St. Paddy's day! Right along with green eggs and ham.... :D

  2. Isn't broccoli always just like cauliflower in shape and size, just green? That's how it looks around here. Maybe there's some other kind of broccoli that I don't know of? I am officially confused.

  3. I guess this is an entity all unto itself!
    It's the shape of cauliflower, but green.
    Lighter green than broccoli. Bright green!
    Hmmmm. The only info I could find is this:

  4. We call it broccoflower in New Zealand. It has milder flavour than cauliflower and is lime green rather than the dark green of broccoli. I far prefer it to either but it's usually more expensive and I'm not sure it has all the special health benefits of broccoli but it's still good. I use a very simple cooking method. Break into pieces, wash, boil in small amount of lightly salted water until al dente and drain. I love it plain and makes a yummy nibble if there are any left overs. I dislike raw cauliflower, broccoli etc.

    Love my veggies.

    Blessings
