Yesterday, we had six of the best artichokes any of us has ever had.
They were the "frost-kissed", ugly ones -- 39 cents each. True joy.

Then I read here that they may be disappearing for a while, so we went
today and bought a dozen more. Four for Carin to take up to her
Dad's, four for us to eat, and four to make into an
artichoke-heart-avocado spread that James likes but has never made for
us.

Mmmmmm, artichokes!
