Having grown up in Southern California, I have enjoyed my fair share of artichokes. We ate them a lot.
When I lived in Maine, I was surprised at how many people had never had one. It was as if I told them I had never had lobster. I had.
Needless to say, when the above gorgeously plump artichokes showed up at our local grocery store - it felt a little like Christmas. I had butterflies, warm fuzzies, glorious anticipation... my heart fluttered even more when I saw that they were priced at 2 for $5. After we devoured our 2 for $5. bundles, I went back a few days later for seconds (of course I did) and they were down to 2 for $4...so of course, I got four more.
I love you so much artichoke.
