Interestingly enough, I have found that my husband has become quite a kale appreciater, and he started out rather non-keen on greens in general. Not sure what made him switch over but he is there now. All the same, I grow lots of the others items I know he likes as well as the things I do (sometimes they are the same!). kitsapFGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06120640838501186514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2106426376973109568.post-46295772408246631412013-01-15T05:48:12.140-08:002013-01-15T05:48:12.140-08:00I love kale too and will plant some for my own use...I love kale too and will plant some for my own use, but not as much as we did this year.
