Candlefire Okra

“Vegetables are food of the earth, but fruits taste of the heavens.”
—Terri Guillemets-- We missed out on purchasing okra... one of our favorite veggies @ last Saturday's local farmers market so today we drove about an hour to visit Chewy's Backyard Farm in Cedartown, Georgia to buy some very freshly picked okra. Did you know that okra is actually a fruit?
