Cauliflower is a cool-season vegetable and is now on special in some of our markets. Although I like it very much, I hardly ever focus on it when grocery shopping.

          <description><![CDATA[
A recent piece on the TV news confirmed my suspicions that some of the packaged items in our grocery stores were smaller with less content. The manufacturers have designed new labels for these slightly smaller versions and have kept them at the same or a little higher price. I&#8217;ve noticed it in some canned goods and even in packages of popcorn kernels. I wondered why all of a sudden I was not getting the quantity of popped corn we had been enjoying.            ]]></description>

While there may be controversy over Zora Neale Hurston&#8217;s claim that she wrote her 1937 novel, &#8220;Their Eyes Were Watching God,&#8221; in seven days, there&#8217;s no disputing its excellence. Nor its painful, yet triumphant story and the way Hurston blends soaring prose with the richness of Southern black idiom.           ]]></description>
