Broccoline and B. Raab are from dif. families. didn't know this when I ordered seeds. B. Raab is from the turnip family. That stuff was foul. Broccolini seeds are trademarked and some brand name shit and very $$ to order. didn't bother. But no wonder it's so expensive in the store.
Raab is a classic in Italian though. Just cut it up and blanch it in very salted water. Takes longer than you think to get it al dente- kinda like hericot verts... Takes a long time.

Then add it to whatever you've got in your skillet... Makes a good addition to a veggie mix.

Over the last week I have been noticing ants in my kitchen. Now many, jut a few random, tiny ants - quick ones. Today there were more than a few so I whipped out a Terro trap with the sticky clear syrup. Aaaaack. Ten minutes later there were a million ants. These sons of bitches have formed a 24 foot long path going around the kitchen, out the porch door, diagonally along the brick to a small gap to the outside. Who knows where they go from there. There must be a million of them in total. Little butt munches.

Totally grossed out.

Could be a lot worse. Your toilet could have overflowed and filled your house with a flowing river of thick shit mud.

actually all the same family, Brassicaceae. Different varieties due to 2000 yrs of selective breeding, but they are all interfertile
Now I'm totally confused. Says Broc Raab is from the turnip family (Brassicaceae) on all the info I'm reading and Brocolini is not.
