Re: Vegetables you love...

[(Anonymous)]

Re: Vegetables you love...

[(Anonymous)]

Love: bell peppers, hot peppers, broccoli, broccolini, lettuce, green beans, potatoes, sweet potatoes, leeks, peas, lima beans, edamame, lacinato kale, carrots, celery, onions, sweet corn, asparagus, artichokes, onions, sunchokes, avocados (they’re a fruit but so are tomatoes so)

Hate: brussel sprouts, radishes, seaweed (unless it’s used for flavor and removed) mushrooms (unless they’re in tiny pieces in something else so the texture’s unnoticeable), fennel, swiss chard, collards, cooked greens in general

Meh/it depends: spinach (raw in salads or cooked in something else is okay), beets (only ever had them grated raw in salads, tomatoes (depends on the texture raw, cooked in mixed veggie soup is fine), cabbage, cauliflower (in soups is fine, but it’s not! rice or pizza crust), jicama

Never tried: okra, parsnips, rutabaga

Does cactus count as a vegetable? 'Cause I freaking love cactus. I also like cucumbers, carrots, broccoli, and red bell peppers.

I hate squash, cabbage, kale, and both iceberg and romaine lettuce.

Re: Vegetables you love...

Love: p. sure I strongly enjoy most if not all vegetables I’ve tried if prepared the way(s) I like EXCEPT

Hate: bitter melon. Just... I’m ok with some bitter, but it’s all the bitter, all the time. Maaaaybe it could be finely sliced and pickled into submission? I dunno.

Popular authors whose writing you don't like...

[(Anonymous)]

Please tell us why, if you can!

Re: Popular authors whose writing you don't like...

I almost want to say Tolkien, but I feel like as a sweeping generalization that's unfair. I heavily dislike the LOTR but didn't mind the Silmarillion or the Hobbit because they didn't have as many unresolved tangents as LOTR, if that makes sense?

Also, I first read LOTR at like, 12/13 so maybe I just need to give it a second chance? I dunno.

Re: Popular authors whose writing you don't like...

John Irving, and a lot of other dude litfic authors who were on the must-read lists in the late 80s.

From what little I have read of her works, it would have to be Anne Rice. Especially when she went through her "I don't need an editor" phase.

Puh-lease.

David Leviathan. Speaking of overdoing the cleverness. His attempts to be clever are sometimes so lengthy I can't understand what's actually trying to be said.

Re: Popular authors whose writing you don't like...

[greghousesgf]

Proust. He's boring.
Somebody must like Edith Wharton a lot considering how often Ethan Frome is called a classic, It's the only book she wrote that I ever read and I really hated it (had to read it for school). This very dull old guy and this total shallow airhead woman fall in love and don't do anything about it but piss and moan about having to hide it from his wife and the closest we get to a sexy scene is where they're washing dishes. Then near the end of the book they decide to do the stupidest thing possible which is commit suicide and they decide to do it in the dumbest way possible which is run their sled into a tree. They wind up paralyzed and the little airhead does more complaining and the wife (who's the character I felt sorry for although I don't think that's who I was supposed to feel sorry for) is forced to take care of both of them for some reason.
oh, and David Sedaris. He's not anywhere near as funny as he thinks he is.

Re: Popular authors whose writing you don't like...

Either Bronte sister, and also Jane Austin. Dull as dishwasher to me. I just don't find romance interesting, and nothing about their writing drew me in. Although at least Austin's characters were a bit interesting. But the plots were too dull to let the slightly intriguing characters make up for that.

Margaret Atwood. I think her writing has important points to make. I just don't like her writing story. Plus, she can't write a good ending. I hate books that just sort of trail off.

Diana Gabaldon. Ugh. I just can't with Outlander.

Robert Jordan. Which is weird because Tolkien takes just as long to get to a point. But Tolkien works for me and Jordan really doesn't.
