I've got a romanesco
Discovered it today
How much more should I let it grow
Can anybody say?
I've got a romanesco
as green as green could be
I want to eat it while it's good
so please get back to me! 8) 8) :-*
.. cauliflower that is! ::)
I had a little cauli
It had a bit of rot
It didn't taste very nice
In fact it tastes of snot. :'(
;D ;D ;D
I had a little romanescue once
I was proud as proud could be
But I left it on the plant to long
And one day it went to seed.
Pick it quick.
You should pick your little cauli,
That was waiting to be found.
You'll make the slugs so jolly
If you leave it in the ground.

I hope ower Kev is joking
But in fact I think he's not -
I used to love my caulies
Now I think only of snot!
your little romanesco
should be sweet as sweet can be
if you pick it while it's nice and young
and eat it for your tea ;D
You're all silly beggers
Hip, hip, hip, hooray,
We're getting back to normal now
And A4A's OK
I'd like to thank my forum maties
You're such a helpful bunch
I'll pick my romanesco tomorrow
And have it for my lunch!
I'm sure you will enjoy it,
Be glad it wasn't binned.
The only trouble is,
It may give you the wind.
......flatulence that is. :-X :-\ ;D
You've nurtured your little cauli
Right from when it was born
Go and pick it sharpish
Before the great storm.
;D ;D ;D
Did you pick your little cauli?
Do tell us what you thought -
I bet it tasted twice as good
As one you could have bought.
just been to my allotment
and I will agree
romanesco's are a fruiting
not one, not two, but three
;D
It's specially exciting
because you see I thought
I had no romanesco left cos
the rabbits got the lot!
No time to go this morning
Too wet this afternoon
Unless I want to feed the slugs
I'd better get it soon! :o
I also got a green un
Gitano was its name
Husband thought it rather odd
But ate it all the same
I'm so very happy
As happy as can be
I've found a bunch of people
Who are crazy just like me!
(in a good way!)
How nice to meet you gwynnethmary,
Albeit in a song,
I hope that you enjoy the site
And choose to linger long ;D
I really, really like this thread
I'ts made me laugh out loud...
I've sat here singing to myself
but my OH isn't proud............for some reason! ::)
I think that we should ask Dan
To do his very best
And make replying in this way
Compulsary for the rest.
Some on here are grumpy >:(
Some on here are sad :(
But I think you all agree ???
Most of us are MAD. :P
;D ;D ;D
did you eat your romanesco
did it taste so very good
it's a lovely small reward for all
the time spent in the mud ;D
A big thank you to grawc
For reminding me to look
I found two on the plot today
And brought them home to cook!
Aah, you don't have to be mad, but it helps!! ;D ;D ;D
So any more discussion
Must be done in rhyme?
Quite tricky to begin with,
But much easier in time.
So make your rhyming couplets
Fit the merry tune,
And careful with your scansion, or
You might just look a loon.
