Obviously she was inviting *attention* by mentioning some medical
condition. In a subsequent post she claims it wasn't about her fatty
liver. Yet she went out of her way to mention it. She got the intended
attention seeking result, up to and including *cue Jill* when the recipe
mentioned steaming the green beans.

She shows her ignorance by saying she likes her cooked vegetables still
crisp. Apparently she doesn't know how to take vegetables being cooked
in a pot with a steamer basket off the burner when they're tender-crisp.

As for photos, some people just don't care about taking pictures of
food. I've posted many food pics over the years but really, I'd rather
eat than snap photos of it.
