I had to read that one twice NW. At first I was thinking you were using little immature green grapes. It sounds much better when I realized it was those green seedless grapes you buy in the store.

Thats funny Appleman, I thought the same thing and had to read it again once I figured out she was using green "Ripe" grapes.

Beautiful Salad...NW.
I'm making garlic shrimp with white wine (lots)lemon butter sauce with parmesan cheese, red pepper flakes, fresh parsley, over linguine with green onion and garlic bread.

Yummy and loaded!!!!! Ramona

Got to simmer it down for a while......cheezy, winey, spicy and shrimpy!!! Then probably add more wine

Sorry about the confusion on the grapes...Guess I should be more specific when on a grape and winemaking Forum...

The BIG PIG ROAST was great,
The salad was a hit.
Driving 140 miles to see old friends...
Was priceless.


Waking up, getting readyand leaving before 6 AM to fit 5 stops in before the party was okay when you are greeted with this...

Remembering the 'Good Old Days' was fun...the only good about the 'Good Old Days' is we weren't old then.

NW, these Are the Good Old Days!
