So, it's a trick you can use every time you are going to grill or fry
eggplant. My favorite compliment from my children was the time we were
having very good grilled vegetables somewhere in a restaurant in Italy
and they said "But *your* grilled eggplant is better!". (Ny second
favorite compliment is when they saw all the hype about Sarah Palin
being sexy in the newspapers - yes, it appeared even here - and they
said "She's not sexy, and she looks old!". Isaid that she was 4 years
younger than I am, she's not old, and they replied "But she looks
*much* older than you" - now, that, coming from a teenager prone to
say "That necklace you're wearing is really ugly", is one hell of a
compliment!)
