I bet. Here, we have yucca plants. Same pointy leaves w/ sharp barbs, yet
no fruit to make 'em worthwhile. A jab leaves a slight toxin that itches

We will be smuggling BBQ into the nursing home where SO's mother lives.
By coincidence, my sister and her family took my mother out for BBQ
today. (Great minds think alike.)

My parents got the bright idea to landscape with Yucca and other tropical

That's precisely why we planted so many sharp, spiny, thorny, prickly
desert plants in our yard...to keep people out of it. The most fun of all
is watching someone get too close to a Jumping Cholla. :-)

Yeah? Well, if you love grilled pineapple spears, you will likely love
this:

@@@@@ Now You're Cooking! Export Format

Baked Pineapple With Brown Sugar And Kahlua

desserts, quick and easy

1/2 small pineapple; peeled, cored
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons butter
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
3 tablespoons Kahlua; or other coffee
; liquer
vanilla ice cream

Preheat oven to 400° F. Cut pineapple into 12" thick spears. Arrange
pineapple in single layer in baking dish. Sprinkle with brown sugar.
Dot with butter and sprinkle with cinnamon. Drizzle Kahlua over. Bake
until pineaple juices bubble, 25 mins.

If necessary, transfer juices to small saucepan and boil untl

This is very good and very quick.

ohmygawd. I am so making this tomorrow! Instead of serving with ice
cream (which I don't have) I'm going to put a dollop of creme fraiche on
top (which I had been looking for ways to use up) instead. I just
bought a ripe pineapple today ($2.99) and while clearing out the pantry
a bit had just found a bottle of homemade "kahlua" neighbors made and
sent over.

So, lemmeno how you liked it! (And creme fraiche would be *perfect*)
