I grow them for other people. I dont eat it. Or eggplant.

Ok then I don't feel bad saying you can keep the pickled okra, I'll stick to fried or like Musey said in Gumbo

 

[BrendaBear]

I agree with you on all points. But the drumming was fantastic.

Yes - it was! I started learning the drums in 5th grade. I love that instrument, but recognize it is not my best, at all.

 

[Lindi37]

Did someone say okra... please tell me no ones making fried okra. I was already drooling over the tots not sure I can take much more without raiding the kitchen

What in the actual is okra?

I grew some last year. We pickled a bunch.
Here, have a jar....

Okay, deformed pickles? Pickled dick?

It looks like fossilized sperm

Aaahhhhh thanks Nebs

Dang it now gumbo... that does it I'm raiding the kitchen...

Gumbo?!

I have so many questions

 

[PlanetaryNebula]

....you're drooling

Be the first time I ever drooled over okra

 

[PlanetaryNebula]

Time to crash. Gnite all

Night Mister

We shall have to agree to disagree on this one, I grew up eating fried okra.

And I haven't even tasted the plant.

 

[Lindi37]

I am sure that was on purpose - for maximum cringe reaction. But not personal.

Oh Brenda. When are we going to do this…

 

[Strixaluco]

Oh and good morning folks! One of those when waking up is a challenge, but it's alright now that I am already having breakfast. Still haven't decided if I'll walk or take the bus today, it's the nasty +1°C with so much humidity it feels like freezing.

It is grown in the southern part of the US and is commonly offered as part of traditional southern cooking. It is a bit of an acquired taste. There are definitely folks that LOVE ocra and will go out of their way to have it, and others who have MM's response of gross.
I fall a bit between the two ends of the spectrum - I did not grow up eating it (being a northern girl), but Mr Cas loves it and so I will eat some when he does - but I will not go out of my way to obtain it.

and just as Strix and the late night workers are coming on, I am going to head to bed too.
Goodnight chaos peeps

okra

Okra is known by other names and a lot of fun.
It has a lot of different uses.

You can get the seeds even here, but it requires growing the seedlings indoors and a greenhouse to get anything to eat. And it definitely hasn't made it's way into our cooking.

This is a really good explanation I'm actually a bit particular about ocra if it's not fried or like musey said in gumbo I usually won't touch it.

But I'm particular about how I like certain vegetables prepared in general.

For you @Strixaluco . My parents got an owl calendar this year. Maybe I can post 1 a month for you

 

[Cindy027]

I may not be good at much, but if I can show any of the younger folks some of the amazing songs by musicians who had actual talent (not computer fixed) from the past, I am a happy woman.

For me I like EDM

Also IM humble O, I think Lady Gaga is the best female vocalist of the 21st century. Listen to her singing star spangled banner at the Super Bowl. I love her commercial pop stuff, I have very fond memories with that in the background.

Zas is a great French artist. Aviccii was a EDM dj/mixer and made some good dance music.
Taylor Swift, Adele, Katy Perry, Pink,Sia all are on my phone and played in the car.

I grew up listening to rock music from the last century and some of its okay, I am more a pop girl. Springsteen was played to death in my house.

What I think I am trying to get across is that the music we listened to with our friends growing up is the music we relate to.

 

[PlanetaryNebula]

Jambalaya crawfish pie fillet gumbo, cuz tonight I’m gonna see my mis cher amio. Or something

 

[Cindy027]

Speaking of Bruce, going to KC to see him and then on to Tulsa two days later for another Springsteen encore.

No thanks, once a year every year we had to be blasted with born in the USA.

I agree we all have a connection to the music we grew up on and it sticks with us our whole lives.

Also I enjoy Lady Gaga myself. My dad couldn't stand her at first, and refused to listen to her until I played him this video without telling him it was her. Afterwards caught him listening to her more then a few times lol
