    I like parsnips many ways. I like them in soups, roasted like the poster above said, or grated with some herbs to make a latke.

    I don't have 10 children, but I did see 10 bears on vacation once. Thought it'd be a cool screen name.

    If the frost has hit them they are really sweet tasting, otherwise if they were water stressed during growing they "can" be a tad biting on the tongue, but great in soups and stews and baked. Sort of in the globe turnip family but long like a huge fat carrot instead of round like a turnip.

    Got 10% knocked off my grocery bill for wearing DH's Arizona Cardinals jersey to Albertson's. Game-day discounts rock!

    I know I'm off topic, but the Arizona Cardinals offense is HORRIBLE now that Kurt Warner has retired. I was a big Kurt Warner fan since he took the St. Louis Rams to two Super Bowls and is a class act in every way.I can't believe our idiot coach (Mike Martz) thought Warner was washed up way back in 2005. Warner sure proved Martz was wrong.What an incredible offense Arizona had with Warner.

    I agree. Warner rocks, not only as a football player, but as a human being as well.

    The Cardinals came to Arizona about the time our daughter was born. Every time we took away an especially nasty diaper, we'd say, "Ooh! Stinky poopus Cardinals!"

    Except for 2009, nothing has changed.

    Good work!
