I'm looking for atchara recipe on your site, and found one of my favorite veggies: KOHLRABI!<br /><br />I use kohlrabi in lieu of green papaya and chayote when I make tinola!

I go to the farmers market here in FL (It is huge..Hundreds of venders)<br /><br />I buy what looks good and give it a try.<br /><br />I am kind of mad at myself. They had okra that looked amazing, but I have no idea what to do with Okra and I was to chicken to try.

I think consistent, long-term blogging takes the commitment and thought you have presented. It really is more work than most think when first starting out.
