A refreshing start to the day.<BR/><BR/>Maybe it was the French coffee that made it extra special. I brought some of that home with me but it didn't taste the same in England. Something to do with the water?<BR/><BR/>But there are also different radishes - with a range of shapes, sizes and flavours. It's worth experimenting until you find one that suits your palate.<BR/><BR/>And it's satisfying to grow something that comes up quickly and without effort. If only the tops were as interesting as carrots!<BR/><BR/>Lucy<BR/><BR/>P.S. Absolutely HATE broad beans.

I had to touchthe stuff and I swear I could smell it waiting in the next cart to be rung up on a busy day.<BR/><BR/>I do like radishes and even liked them as a kid. Some are too hot but most are crisp and spicy. I eat them plain but do peal a good part of the red off since the white is my favorite part. I am sure my mom will have a tray of cut veggies on Thanksgiving and there will be radishes!My Little Family:https://www.blogger.com/profile/17240741117809295524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5914810585595300402.post-15781343096460549842008-11-25T17:19:00.000-08:002008-11-25T17:19:00.000-08:00I don't like asparagas.
