Q: What’s the difference between eggplant and snot?
A: Kids will eat their snot.
I can’t believe I just told that awful joke. It’s completely out of character for me. Really. San Geraldo, I’m sure, will be in shock (not because it bothers him, but because he won’t be able to believe I told it). Of course, there’s always the possibility San Geraldo won’t even get the joke.
And that opening will certainly make the rest of this post (on eggplant) so much less appetizing. Sorry. But sometimes the inner child just screams and screams until I let him out. (He’s never gotten quite this far.)
San Geraldo prepared eggplant last night that, yes, even kids would like. He found the recipe, Poor Man’s Steak, online at eatingwell.com. We both think it’s the best eggplant dish we’ve ever had. We had some leftovers with our lunch salad this afternoon. Delicious cold a day later, too. If you’re interested in the recipe, click here.

Since the opening joke was so disgusting, I had considered using instead another eggplant joke I know.
Q: What water produces the best eggplant?
A: Perspiration.
See why I chose disgusting?
