Yep, it's like a weed!!

I used to have a place that had 3 huge bushes of it in the back yard. I
had to burn them off every couple of months..... and they just kept
growing, and growing, and growing!!

I gave some 'cuttings' to some friends, they planted them, ended up with
huge bushes of it, now they've dug them up and broken the bushes up and
planted them all over their property...... and they want to give some back
to me!!

I'll just go around to their place and grab some as I need it :-)

Damn!! Looks good. (The food, as well as the pics, as usual!!)

Now, with a freezer full of tenderloin....... I feel like a nice bit of
fish for dinner. Bugger!!
