Yummy!

I hit the jackpot this week at the souk (outdoor food market). For a while, I had been looking for one of my favorite things to eat in the US, green vegetables. Dark green veggies are not common here, possibly because it is too hot to grow them. (Plant propagators respond here.) Veggies are not bagged and unmarked. When you ask questions in English, sometimes you get an answer, but not always the correct answer. The victory came when I found dark green leaves in a labeled bag called beet greens. They sure didn’t look like beet greens. Who knows what they were, but I was happy :)
