Faithful readers, it's been one wacky week for me. First I set a record for trying two new things in a week's time, and just hours ago, I broke that record by trying a third new thing in a week. At supper tonight, I tried fried okra. And it wasn't bad. It was down right tastey. In fact, I had a couple of spoonfuls.
For years I've seen Mom and Dad eat fried okra and have turned up my nose at it without bothering to try it. I imagined it would be something similar to fried slime, since okra is slimey when you slice it. I sure was wrong. It wasn't slimey at all. And Mom fried it in seasoned cornmeal so it was crunchy and very flavorful. I can't say that I will probably order it the next time I want to binge and eat something fried, but I will definitely eat it again.
I'm having some major tooth pain right now, and while I don't think I'll be eating anything hard or crunchy for awhile, who knows? This weekend if I come across something new that's soft, I just might go for it and try it since I'm on a roll.
