We can buy pretty ribbon to tie them up!<br />And I don't think I will be enjoying a white Christmas but please, post pictures. And we're about to get our first frost so our collards will be perfect.<br /><br />Ms. Fleur- That sounds exciting and not in a good way. <br />All bookstores are holy places, as are libraries.<br /><br />Ginger- I know!<br /><br />Bethany- No. No real slugs.

I grow them but can never think of anything creative to do with em so end up giving a lot to my bunnies. That seems like a shame. I love your green eating ways.<br />Oh and this made me laugh, ..."and theb a few good slugs..." in your recipe. I had a huge slug problem this summer, and was picking heaps of them off plants in the rain every single night for 2 months, in pjs, wearing plastic gloves, carrying a flashlight. I thought you were telling her to add a few good slugs to the recipe at first!Bethanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03510823788662848522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-10304738301229689772009-12-18T19:09:03.978-05:002009-12-18T19:09:03.978-05:00Ms. Dish- I'm getting there.

That's what I think.<br /><br />LoPo- See- I think that all the greens but collards can be cooked that way. However, I think that collards are somehow too substantial and need a lot of cooking. I don't want to fight with my collards. I want them to melt in my mouth. They don't cook down nearly as much as the other greens- mustards, turnips, kale. But I'll bet your collards are fine and yes, cheese grits go with them perfectly.<br /><br />Nola- You are welcome! You could just boil 'em with some ham and they would be delicious. For a long time. With some vinegar. <br /><br />Nancy- Glad to help you out!<br /><br />Ms. Bastard- Well, that sucks. I wish you hadn't had to cry in the grocery store. Ain't fair. And I know you still have a good relationship with the ex and that's okay but dammit, he should not have made you cry in public! Or in private, either.Ms. Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09776404747858099919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-23150111973136132922009-12-18T16:51:38.939-05:002009-12-18T16:51:38.939-05:00Congratulations to Ms. Jessie!

I don't know exactly what happened, but I think either he almost ran over her by accident, or she just almost ran into his car trying to get out of the rain and pulled that power play of I'm the pedestrian thing. I do not think he saw her though, because as she was cursing him, she stopped to take a breath and he said out his window: "That's not very nice!" Which started her on yet another tirade! So sad.<br /><br />But I'm glad you're feeling better and good for you for going to Borders. I love that place. The used bookstore smells much better though, like old books. :-) yummy!<br />xoPetit fleurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02626110471501778855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-8859571001411523372009-12-18T16:27:37.708-05:002009-12-18T16:27:37.708-05:00@ ms moon

I just cook them until they seem like they're cooked. It's so amazing to watch a huge pot of them shrink. Ms. Moon's sound more interesting, but I probably would never have all those ingredients at the same time.

A sliced onion, good-sized. And then a few good slugs of Dales Seasoning, some roasted vegetable bouillon base and (okay, this is cheating but I love it), a package of Lipton vegetable dry soup mix. The Knorr type is good too. <br />And then I cooked them for hours. And actually, there were collards AND mustards both in there. <br />Sometimes I add some balsamic vinegar at the end for more sweetness.<br />I save the juice from these to make soup out of.Ms. Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09776404747858099919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-19129153870490141492009-12-18T11:42:34.549-05:002009-12-18T11:42:34.549-05:00Ms. Moon, as a Yankee I have never gotten my green...Ms. Moon, as a Yankee I have never gotten my greens to taste quite right to my tongue.

I backed into a car I didn't see. I got a dent and scratch, the guy I hit had his license plate all dented up. After I offered to exchange names, call the police or pay for his license cover with a check, he told me to not worry about it because the season is stressful enough to have to think about a license plate cover. He told me to have a nice holiday. I thought that was so nice and rare and I won't forget it. We both drove our separate ways after that.<br /><br />I hate witnessing obvious disharmony and conflict between couples, so that interaction you heard would have tugged at my stomach. <br /><br /> And, the Church of the BSC is quite cool and unique. I love the vibe over here. This comment by me is getting way too long, but I hope you have a great weekend, Ms. Moon.nicolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05634572672852445923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-91679410370605276792009-12-18T10:32:44.925-05:002009-12-18T10:32:44.925-05:00I'm at work and haven't had my coffee yet,...I'm at work and haven't had my coffee yet, but good morning.
