Ate an Artichoke

Photo of Artichokes

A bunch of artichokes, (the photo is spychic on flickr)

We had never tried artichoke before, so Joanie bought a couple the other day, (at the same time we bought the chayote, actually), and we finally got around to eating them just now. It’s kind of fun, but a lot of work for not very much food, (that can be a good thing or bad thing depending on how you look at it).

We now have a lot of stuff to put in the compost and I think I ate one of the spiky things at the top of the leaf that you’re not supposed to eat.

  • What is Choices That Matter?

    I'm a guy named John, and I do most of the writing around here. I went from a really active lifestyle to a really inactive lifestyle very quickly and my body is noticing. On top of that I'm worried about what's happening to our planet, so, I'm trying to do something about it.

    For Christmas I received the book Food Matters, which I found very interesting and inspired me to start changing. Check out my first post for the beginning of the story.
