Oh, so delicious.January 18, 2009By mommy_J_J_J
"I have a 4, 3, and 1 year old and we live in the country. I have a vigetable garden every summer and I like to try different veggies from the produce aisle before planting them to see what my kids will eat. I gues this summer, we'll have a row of eggplant. I thought my 1 year old would be sick, she ate so much. I only bought 1 eggplant (pretty large 1) thinking that if anything my son (4) would be the only one to share it with me. WOW, I was mistaken. Guess I have to go back and get one for myself now."
