You will love this story! Today I went to my local grocery, and in the produce section I saw a sign for Vidalia onions on sale for $1.29/lb. I thought, this is a little early, but I checked it out. Oh, yes, they were sweet onions...product of Mexico! I found the young man working there and told him about the sign. He said those are the onions. I said you can't call them that unless they are grown in Vidalia Georgia, listen I am a Southern lady, and I know my Vidalias. You are false advertising, that sign has to go. He shook his head & walked away!! This would never happen down South!
Hope you are enjoying some sunny warm days now, & that the pollen is gone.
My mouth is watering. I practically live for the first Vidalia in the grocery, a time when I know the "good" season had arrived, Vidalias, strawberries too. More fun to get from an old yellow bus though. Same with corn & veggies. Something about it. XX D.

A criminal offense!
Ah ... Vidalia onions. Nothing like them. Thanks for sharing that delicious recipe, also!
