Though I'm thinking the accoutrement and methodology are the key. Okay Pinko Punko, I’m willing to try that mode of the dreaded mini-cabbages of doom.

I recall as a child that our Border Collies, who would devour unattended cigarette butts and cat turds with gusto, would spit them out. I’m with you on the Brussel sprouts, Sara.

Sprouts. I used to hate them til I had them roasted under the broiler tossed with a little olive oil and some pancetta. Seriously, they still give you gas but they taste amazing and not like ass anymore. This is very important. The word must be preached!

I hope I remember to make it when my innards are not in such a state of disarray. Hey Peggasus that recipe looks mighty-mighty.

I sauteed shallots in olive oil til soft, removed them from the pan, browned the scallops, then served them with the shallots with a little lemon juice. We used homemade bread to soak up the juices. Yum! I was trying to come up with ways to add flavor without spices. What about a fritatta made with local free-range eggs, with their orangey yolks? I usually layer mine with slices of oven-roasted potato and other veggies, spinach, and farmhouse cheddar. Maybe toasted pine nuts if I have them.

Scallops, brussels sprouts and gremolata are a few of my favorite things. (I'd put them somewhere between bright woolen mittens and whiskers on kittens.) My favorite scallop recipe features a reduction of carrot juice, white wine and marjoram; the resulting sauce is a beautiful mellow (not UT burnt!) orange. I'm glad you're able to enjoy these, despite the chemo-stomach lining issues. Oh, my stomach is growling! Scallops, brussels sprouts and gremolata are a few of my favorite things.
