My wife grilled some chicken thighs on the gas BBQ. They turned out
great. Sides were some fried potatoes and fiddleheads. That is a rare
spring time treat.

It was a chicken sandwich and potato chips here.

RFC eats meat like you'd expect from lower socio-economic boomers.
It's one pig after another chicken after another cow. There's no
awareness at all of how much damage this old-skool lifestyle does to
the planet, let alone the animals.

Fiddleheads!-a That reminds me of a long ago poster (Kendall F. Stratton) who lived in Maine.-a He and his son picked fresh fiddleheads and shipped them to me in dry ice.-a The package labeled "perishable" was delivered while I was at work.-a Got home to find a delivery attempt notice on the front door of my apartment.-a I immediately went to the post office to
pick up the package.-a They'd just put it back on the truck to try to deliver it again.-a I raced back home.-a Another delivery attempt notice. Back to the post office.-a I finally managed to get the fiddleheads. They taste a lot like asparagus. :)

I kinda like them but I don't often by them myself. They come out at the same time as the local asparagus. They cost a heck of a lot more than
fresh local asparagus. The price per pound is more than asparagus and
those things are pretty heavy, so a serving of fiddleheads weighs more
than a serving of asparagus and therefore costs even more.-a The taste is
-avery similar to asparagus. I have to say this batch was a little disappointing.-a I will buy them once a year during their short season
but considering they come at the same time as asparagus, taste so much
like asparagus and cost so much more than asparagus, I am inclined to
get the asparagus,

Never heard of them until we went to a restaurant in MA in the 1980s. Figured I'd try them.-a Curly asparagus is a good description.-a Short season from what we were told.

Kendall and his son picked them in the wild.-a They weren't buying them
at a grocery store.-a It was really nice of him to send them to me.
