I'm about to scarf down some freshly picked green beans...

[Catshrink]

I know they're fresh, because I picked them myself from my neighbor's yard. Mine didn't grow for some reason but his did -- I gave him the left over seeds. OMG they are delicious! Green beans have always been my favorite vegetable.

edited to differentiate between eating and puking.

1. We had a neighbor who used to give us green beans from his garden.

They are delicious, we would eat them raw.

2. There are few things as awesome

tomatoes of course. I didn't try them this year. I need to get some sunshades made -- that's why his turned out so well.

4. Supernova described a tomato Tart Tatin that she is planning to make in this thread.

It sounds so delicious. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=8830845&mesg_id=8830920

7. That does sound good!

and I do have basil in my garden -- that seems to grow without much attention.

3. Aren't you supposed to scarf them DOWN?

I thinking scarfing up is puking.

5. Oops.

I shouldn't post when tired. I will correct that. Thanks for letting me know!

6. I never liked them when I was growing up.

Then I tasted freshly picked. Hell, I picked 'em. :) Changed my mind in a hurry.

8. I've always liked them...

my friends' parents always thought I was weird because I always ate my vegetables. Mom trained us well.

9. yum

so far the only thing I've had from the "garden" was parsley, cilantro, basil, and oregano. Oh and the three bunches of lettuce that volunteered from seeds from last year's bolted plants.

10. I have a huge overgrown catnip plant

that bolted -- and now I have little catnip plants here and there throughout the yard. I need to tear out the big one and start it over. The cats do love the fresh leaves.
