I have thinky thoughts about a lot of stuff but I'm too lazy to type them up, instead I give you a poll and the possibility of me posting recs later today.

Here's the sitch: You have a vegetable platter in front you. It contains broccoli, bell pepper slices (any color), cucumbers, carrots, celery, cauliflower, squash/zucchini slices, and tomatoes. The dip is your preference, ranch, hummus, pimento cheese [what? I'm Southern], whatever you like to dip your veggies in.

NOTE: none of the veggies are limp, dry, under-ripe, or over-ripe. They're all brightly colored and at the height of freshness.

[Poll #1328038]

this post brought to you by someone who wants some produce with some flavor.

I will eat pretty much any fresh produce other than uncooked green peppers (unless they're disguised in a salad.)Last night I made coconut curry Thai chicken (which was a bit rich with coconut milk and peanut butter) so I ate mostly edamame, cauliflower and carrot sticks alongside (get thee hence, baby weight!!)

This post reminded me of the scene from School Hard where Buffy is making the crudites for Parents Night and she scolds Xander and Cordy for snagging bell pepper rings from her platter. I always think it's cute that Cordy and Xander both want peppers. I don't know why.

Hi, B!!

I'd forgotten all about Buffy's crudites -- clearly, I need to re-watch Buffy! Things are starting to fade and blend into fanon a bit too mcuh.

I'll eat almost ANY fresh produce. I can't actually think of one I'd refuse to eat, unless it was cooked very, very badly. I prefer my veggies raw or still crisp.
