Cute blog post

My mom never cooked brussel sprouts, even though my dad really likes them. I think there is a theme here, that my mom cooks only vegetables that she likes. Anyway I never pushed myself to learn to make them, because the times I tried they were either mushy or tough. Even with the X on the bottom!

Brussel sprouts are my new girlfriend.

Okay, how can you resist that? I might buy some at the store when I'm there with my son later this morning. I'll let you know if I do.

I spent some time looking through a pretty cookbook with The Toddler last night. Afterward, I started my grocery list and the first thing I wrote? BRUSSEL SPROUTS!

My mother always cooked them in a pot of water on the stove, and though I thought they were alright that way (even without cheese), I am excited to try them roasted and salty.

I agree, brussels sprouts are fantastic roasted. I never much liked them any other way.
