A Christmas Confession

I have NEVER liked kale. I know it's the new superfood, but I just didn't like it! UNTIL I saw this huge dark green leaf that just spoke of all the good stuff we are supposed to eat." What on earth is that?", I asked. "Kale," was the reply. "But this is not ordinary kale. It's dinosaur kale."

I looked at those giant leaves every Saturday for four weeks, until l last week my curiosity overcame me. I bought the kale. Last night I finally got up the nerve to cook the stuff and even served it to a reluctant guest. I just sauteed it and sprinkled a little balsamic vinegar on it.

What a surprise! That kale was just delicious !!!! I am going to buy some more on Saturday! And the next Saturday, and the next, if ya'll don't buy it all first! In other words, I have fallen in love with dinosaur kale. Give it a try! You might be a convert also! Merry Christmas! - Pat Jenkins
