Don't judge a book by it's cover . . .

Or, in this case, a plate!

I was just about to sit down to my eagerly awaited breakfast, looked at my plate and thought, "My twelve year old self would be absolutely horrified by my 50 year old self!" I mean, look at it...it is just NOT an appealing looking plate.  But...my oh my...night-before cabbage and green onions roasted with a bit of olive oil, garlic powder, kosher salt and pepper at 375 for a smidge over 25 minutes...that plate of delights tastes as good as a giant piece of chocolate cake and moosetracks ice cream would've to my 12 year old self!

It's really all I can do not to eat every wedge of roasted cabbage the minute it comes out of the oven. Sometimes...just sometimes...I think I have a rather strange palate! (-:

pallet is sometimes confused with palette - Yep! 

Palette: a thin board or slab on which an artist lays and mixes colors.

Palate: a person's appreciation of taste and flavor, especially when sophisticated and discriminating.

Finally, found the right one, haha!
