1. That's one abiding mystery solved. Who'd have thunk okra is a leaf.

2. Wonder if people in cold states are familiar with okra?

It's OK if they aren't. I never tasted rhubarb until I was in my 50's.

4. Beautiful!
All of them. And add pickled okra to the list of things I can eat a whole jar of but usually regret it after...

5. Yer killin' me here.
Here in the PNW the only place you can find okra is in stores that stock Indian food. I have to make a pilgrimmage to make a decent gumbo.

MMMMMMmmmmmmmm..... Friiieeeeeeedddd....
