I empathize, my odious one
You put such terror on the tongue
If I were as acrid as you
I would be bitter too

About My Blog
- Adair Seldon
- Oh, please. Another blogger sitting around contemplating her navel orange? I feel your pain, so I’ll be pithy. My obsession needs a home. Where it can share recipes for a flexitarian diet, exhibit original photos and serve up tongue-in-cheek mouthfuls on the topics du jour. Whether praising a pea or appraising the planet, this writer, traveler and culinary inquisitor is bringing it all to the table. Stop rolling your eyes. You’re going to eat this stuff up.

How apt! Bitter melon is used for weaning in some cultures. Women rub the juice on their nipples to discourage the little ones form nursing. I learned this when I lived in the South Pacific.
