Too bad the okra was still slimy after all that work. I've never actually had okra before and I'm not certain I feel the need to. Definitely a fun post though and I always enjoy reading your review of movies and books.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08731435798319897025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2696248883608841507.post-48321969835085366782011-08-30T17:03:31.781-10:002011-08-30T17:03:31.781-10:00OMG I love that movie - and Mary Louise Parker, I ...OMG I love that movie - and Mary Louise Parker, I love her!!

I would take the chance at slimy just to try this recipe, because it does sound really tasty. I may wind up feeling the same way, but it'd be worth a try. And I happen to be a celeriac lover. I just love that pure, powerful flavor...so I'll have to keep this sauce on my to-make list, as well Heather S-Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02722720171083290211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2696248883608841507.post-38830026468030337842011-08-30T00:24:32.449-10:002011-08-30T00:24:32.449-10:00You are SO making me wish that I had taken the opt...You are SO making me wish that I had taken the optional okra from my CSA!
