I love artichokes. As a kid my mom boiled them and then we dipped the end of the leaves in butter. The heart was the reward for our hard work. This spring has been about artichokes. Last week a few blogger friends and I went to Baroda Farms in Lompoc to see the thistles up close. Here’s the video in case you missed it.
Last year about this time I was in Rome where artichokes were everywhere. And it is also where I tasted my first fried artichoke at Gensola. Here’s my interpretation of fried artichokes.

Wonderful video — love your soothing inspirational voice (but I must see your face in the next one!). Learned something I didn’t know and enjoyed learning it….a win.

Thanks so much for checking out the video. I will show up in the next one. This one just didn’t turn out quite right. Thanks again.
