So I figure they're the same kind, but grown outside of Vidalia. Save A Lot only has yellow onions, or white onions.<br /><br />I also love this song by Sammy Kershaw: Vidalia. Which has the lyric, "Sweet Vidalia, you always gotta make me cry."<br /><br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYs8bIGseoIValhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13025832536749983018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-937038870722238271.post-76237441458193029302021-12-26T13:04:36.777-06:002021-12-26T13:04:36.777-06:00Vidalia onions are the sweetest.

They are trade marked! I have found them in every state we have lived in during the growing season. They are shipped out from Vidalia. They are so mild and sweet, I have seen people actually eat them like an apple. Shallots are very mild with just a hint of onion taste. I have grown them in my garden, I like them in soups and stews. HeWho will tell you he has never eaten them, along with many other things, but he is wrong!Kathy's Klotheslinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17881966393157941515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-937038870722238271.post-28954994634098743512021-12-26T00:17:21.753-06:002021-12-26T00:17:21.753-06:00These were definitely in a white skin, but I used ...These were definitely in a white skin, but I used them all in the roasted veggies, before getting a picture.

But at least the stuff would be placed right.<br /><br />I might have to put up a picture of the mysterious yellow onion! Maybe you call it a brown onion. I think of our brown onions as just a white onion in a brown skin. I don't know what a shallot is, despite years of viewing cooking shows.Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13025832536749983018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-937038870722238271.post-50590257901600226142021-12-25T02:16:14.080-06:002021-12-25T02:16:14.080-06:00I wish I knew!

He could have written down the YELLOW onions. Or sent me a text with it so he'd have a record of it on his phone. I was in the basement in my OPC (Old People Chair) when he left, and my phone doesn't work out there for me to text him.<br /><br />The games were entertaining, and I won my share. More, according to the ex-ex-mayor.<br /><br />I'm glad you enjoy my blog, but I hope it's not a new vice!

The other countries are Scotland in the North and Wales in the West. I'm not sure if Wales is considered part of England or a separate country, ditto Scotland, but to me they are separate. Ireland is a whole separate island and I don't know if it is part of the UK and I can't be bothered finding out.

Does he think it doesn't matter because you're his spouse? Good grief! Well, I hope you win some games tonight and have a nice Christmas Eve. Merry Christmas.

It's worse because Hick SAYS he is helping me.<br /><br />I always use yellow onions in my roasted vegetables. Until this year. The white onions seemed really thin, but the taste was okay on the segment I tried after roasting. <br /><br />I am guessing that England is STILL an island, and if it isn't, somebody needs to tell me! Since I was left out of the loop last time.<br /><br />Merry Christmas! I'm off to win some games at the shindig at the house of my sister the ex-ex-mayor's wife.Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13025832536749983018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-937038870722238271.post-52596875566983512842021-12-24T14:23:38.434-06:002021-12-24T14:23:38.434-06:00Seems like Hick helps everyone but you.
