cauliflower power

cauliflower is one of my favourite vegetables. raw or cooked, curried or plain with a pinch of salt - it all tastes so great. not only do i love cauliflower but i also go bananas over certain types of overgrown fruit and vegetables. the last piece of produce that made me go ga-ga was a bunch of massive grapes. i went absolutely nuts before i gobbled them all up. that was 3 years ago.

imagine my excitement when i saw a giant crop of giant cauliflower at loblaws today. with wide eyes, i turned to my fiance and said, "look how biiig", as i gently picked up a head and cradled it in my arms. we wheeled it around in our buggy until we passed a display with even bigger cauliflower - then we upgraded. it's so fascinating that i almost don't want to eat it. almost.
