After trying them, they ended up being the only cookies I've ever thrown away.

As for the blue cheese, I may have to come scout out your nursery sometime, and if so I'll try the cheese provided it's not clutched by any...well, you know.Steve Silkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11531018499519950491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8170210501356136695.post-5159757458160190772008-11-21T09:14:00.000-05:002008-11-21T09:14:00.000-05:00Hey IF-Apples are good, but so is getting way way ...Hey IF-Apples are good, but so is getting way way out of the box.

I'll stick with the thought about the blue cheese part of the aroma.<BR/><BR/>Here in Vermont we have a super blue cheese producer named Jasper Hill Farm in Greensboro. If you get up this way, give some a try. Their site is http://jasperhillfarm.com<BR/><BR/>Good gardening wishes!<BR/><BR/>George Africa<BR/>The Vermont Gardener<BR/>http://thevermontgardener.blogspot.comvermontflowerfarm@outlook.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03923885023694355932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8170210501356136695.post-88044319835235492792008-11-20T12:32:00.000-05:002008-11-20T12:32:00.000-05:00Ohhh my that is about the weirdest fruit I've ever...Ohhh my that is about the weirdest fruit I've ever seen or heard about! You are indeed a brave soul to get over such a stench to try it. Think I'll stick to apples, lol!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing, it is amazing what you can learn in a day!
