A good friend of mine used to slice thinly and add to a sweet and sour pork dish. Phenomenal. Unfortunately, I never got the recipe and he's no longer with us. I enjoy a good kumquat marmalade....

Looks so damned good, but also brings back memories of cleaning hundreds of heads with a designated toothbrush. I know now that I was nothing more than cheap child labor to my mother. :lol:...

Sorry for the late reply. I can only speak to LG brand re the in-door icemaker. Nothing but problems! My sister and I have the same model with compressor dying after a surge or blackout. Have a friend who had the same issue. Google will tell you what's up. ...

Thanks! I'm going to check with two nurseries here in NOLA. I would have gone with Pelican Greenhouse, which is only a mile and a half from me. Unfortunately, their next sale is not until 5/12. I'd really like to get these in sooner than that. Gonna ping this thread/you Thursday if I need those ABBs...

This is what small people (aka ankle-biters) got when they visited our crawfish boils in SoCal. I'm not going to prep good burgers from scratch when the main course is crawfish. ...

Ah, that makes a lot of sense. I've read that the beautyberries can be used to make wine. When I was little, my grandmere would talk about her dad making wine from French mulberries. ...

I love the French door styling because I bake and cook a lot. I am able to put large trays in the fridge or freezer. I hate that my fridge is an LG, though. HATE IT! LG compressors are shite. DO NOT get the in-door icemaker. You've been warned....
