Broccoli, Not a Favorite

The items on Scavenger Hunt 593  http://www.wetcanvas.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1467867   included a food you don't like.  Broccoli nearly falls in that category.  There aren't many foods I don't like.  I still like broccoli when it is steamed just right.  I have a hard time eating it raw for dips as in my sketch.  I think it is that I just ate too much and if it isn't fresh, it gets bitter.

Number 5, two veggies - you get four for the price
Number 6, food you don't like - broccoli

Gene brought the veggie tray.  I hadn't seen one with peppers.  There are two cute ones in the front.  I was going to take them out and decided to sketch the little tray as it was.  The dip is still upside down.  My favorite in the tray is celery ... when it is good.  Asparagus and any beans are probably my favorite vegetables.

Now it is off to get my pastels cleaned up, sorted and ready to go.  I need to pack my art stuff today and tomorrow.  Sigh.....

Your veggie tray looks yummy! Are those little peppers? How cute to have them in there whole. I can't think of a food I don't like that is in the house for me to sketch. If I don't like it I usually don't buy it...except maybe for Italian sausages for Jerry, but there are none around. I like most veggies except for lima beans.

Joan, we don't buy food I don't like either. :-) The broccoli is so common in mixed things, can't get around it. I can eat it and when it is cooked right it can be very good. This in the trays is usually a bit sad..... I'm less fond of black eyed peas, they are gritty to me like they have sand. I also get sand in any type of shellfish. Everyone can order and enjoy and mine always has sand. It is like when we go out to eat, Joanna is the one that gets a bent fork or dirty silverware. Crazy.

Jennifer Rose, I like most veggies a lot. I prefer them over fruit but, all in moderation.
