Why did I plant so many peas?
Comments (4)No dumplings, although that sounds good. I remember living in Chicago's west suburbs for a few years and my dad (he referred to himself as Bohemian) took us to the Czech restaurants in Berwyn and Cicero. There was nothing on the menu that might be considered low-fat! Yesterday, I prepared a summer salad using some of my freshly picked peas, herbs from the garden, brown and wild rice and more.

That's why I posted and said "I'm leaning toward it being the Mistletoe Cactus. I did a search for pictures of it after Liz mentioned it". Thanks everyone else! I'm still thinking it's a Mistletoe Cactus. I've never even heard of them. Walmart only had 2. Soxxxx..it probably would have jumped in my buggy, but I had to do some rearranging to make a place for her to sit! lol I also asked and posted the pictures over on the Cacti & Succulents Forum. Got a couple of responses, but only thing I understood was "It's not a Pencil Cactus", then they started using the "fancy" names! lol Here is a link that might be useful: Cacti & Succulents Forum...See Moreluvncannin
