Ahhh, artichokes! My favorite! We used to always eat them with mustard/mayonnaise. Yum!
When my kids were little, we (their dad and I) had them convinced that the center part, the "heart." wasn't very good, but that we'd eat it for them so they wouldn't have to... We were so bad!
My new husband is perfect in every way, except that he grew up in Chicago and doesn't "get" artichokes. So sad......!
Enjoy!!
