What do you do when the foods your iggy relies on isnt availble? I went to EVERY grocery store in town and NONE (4) of them had either collard or mustard greens? DD refuses to eat UNLESS one or both is in her bowl (YES shes spoiled), What do you do in cases like this? Probably go to another local town but thats 30 mins away and after dragging three kids to 4 stores it wasnt a good idea to go anywhere else. I am going to talk to the store managers and see what they can do. ALSO we have a nice little garden growing out at our land, our collard greens are growing very well weird ? though they have a yellow flower growing with them to seems to be inside some of the plants, is this normal or do I have an added weed in the garden, the flower seems to be grwoing from teh collard greens plants . Our mustard greens look rather poorly but theres a good amount of collards, Also do the ones you grow on your own grow to the same size as the ones I buy in the store or will they be smaller (they are smaller but im wondering if I should wait or harvest them all now, have been getting a handfull each time I go out there to bring home). Also how long will they stay good ziplocked in the fridge?
