(Grandpa with his bowl of chicken--and celery!--soup.)
I admit. These last few days I've been slacking with my vegetables. While I've been eating a different one each day, I've been letting the veggies come to me--usually in the form of a restaurant menu--rather than buying and preparing them myself.
I didn't prepare today's vegetable, either--celery--but I did drive two and a half hours to get it at my Grandpa's place. Mark and I both agreed the chicken soup was pretty tasty. I think it was the celery.
Wikipedia celery fun fact: A salt made from an extract of celery roots is used in Bloody Marys, Chicago hot dogs, and Old Bay Seasoning.

Little known fact: It takes more calories to chew, eat and digest celery then it gives back to you. A constant diet of celery will starve you to death. I knew you wanted to know that :-)
That's why I always dip my raw celery in peanut butter. :)
Soup and peanut butter are the reason celery exists, in my opinion. Otherwise, it has yet to justify its presence on earth.
Oh, and maaaybe ranch.
Ranch and buffalo wings!
