What??! That’s a Maple leaf on the Canadian flag? I always thought it was Okra .
Speaking of Okra, or “okrie,”as Grandma called, just showed up here in the stores. They have no idea what it is so I bought a big bag of it. Now, my Christmas is complete…IF…I can find Yellow Cornmeal. They don’t understand that component either. Mmmmmmmm! Fried Okra for Christmas!!
