Broccoli Revisited

Have you ever wondered what 14.5 lbs of broccoli looks like? 


Yes, you're seeing that right.  That's FIVE grocery bags full of broccoli crowns.

So, you may be asking WHY did I buy 14.5 lbs of broccoli?

To freeze, of course!  I couldn't pass up the "37 cents / lb" sale at Lucky's this weekend. 

I see a LOT of blanching in my future, don't you?

Of course, you get a LOT of strange looks when you arrive at the checkout with a large amount of broccoli in your cart.  The cashier asked me, "Are you making broccoli soup?"  LOL
