Guest guest Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 This sounds great. I have one I cut from the paper to try also. Guess what? I have 4 bunches of celery right now. I picked them up for 39 cents a bunch. I just couldn't pass them up. I had two stalks with crunchy peanut butter and hemp nut seeds sprinkled all over the top. Yummy!
