Once upon a time, you were with Christine and took a picture of
cardoon for me at some farmers market. That was good for a laugh.
My ex's grandmother used to go picking them by bridges, if you can
imagine. Then she'd pound the living crap out of them, batter and fry
them. They'd be like crispy stringy appetizers and I adored them.
