Lots of Signs For Sale



Want to buy a sign?


This is about a tenth of the supply that this vendor had in his stall.





Fiddleheads (from yesterday):

Fiddleheads are the baby ferns coming out of the ground and in Canada are very common along the St. John River in New Brunswick. This is where I first tasted them and grew to love them.


They have a similar taste to maybe broccoli? Or similar veggie that you might steam? I steam them for about 10 minutes in my double steamer pot and then (ohhh, the calories) I smother them with real butter and a pinch of salt and sit back and enjoy!


I'm so happy that this Mennonite farmer has found them on his farm and so now I'll have a constant spring supply.

Facts on Fiddleheads

St. Jacobs Market


Fiddleheads





On my trip to St. Jacob's Market, we saw lots of fiddleheads and I bought some and so enjoyed them.


Have you ever eaten fiddleheads?
Do you like them?



EDIT:
Hi Everyone... Today I posted more about fiddleheads. And I put in a link to a website from Maine, USA which would be almost the same information for us here in Canada.
