I'd certainly rather see them use composted manure on the white house grounds than synthetic fertilizer.

Those of us who are NOT hypochondriacs deserve some reward in the way of a reimbursement of some kind on our healthcare plans when we DON'T habitually run to the doctor every time we feel less than spunky! Furthermore, I would like to see Big Government butting OUT of ALL PARTS of our private lives! THEY DON'T BELONG THERE IN THE FIRST FRICKING PLACE!! Career politicians were NEVER part of the plan when our forefathers sacrificed to make this country what it USED to be! Everyone needs to inform themselves better & they could start right here, as I plan to do, learning more about organic eating, then progress to learning more about how to have better control again over the rest of our personal decisions.

Good try though! They didn't know at the time of planting.

If you would like it I have permission to share so I can post it if anyone is interested. FYI - I just leave the meat out of 1/2 of it since I am vegan. Baba ganoush is a great way to use eggplant too!!!!! Also, the July 2007 issue of Bon Appetit magazine also has a recipe for Eggplant Caprese With Grilled Tomato And Basil Vinaigrette but I just found it last week and have not tried it yet. You can find the recipe at epicurious.com website. I had a bit of the same problem with my garden this year... I planted collards and let me tell you..... we have supplied half the neighbors... filled the freezer and eaten what we could and they still keep coming!!! LOL!! Robyn,
