Things That are Overrated

ok guess I'm just not a food connoisseur :lol::lol:

 

Pine trees. Not worth much, break like a twig, are extremely messy, and rather ugly to me.

 

ah, but are they ever popular in construction

 

Back when I lived in Louisiana, I'd have been inclined to agree with you, but now that I live in North Texas, where trees are less than plentiful, I believe that any tree is a good tree.

 

perhaps my opinion is skewed since all of them look like this due to hurricanes. :grin:

 

Stacey, I'm with you on this one. I grew up in the Midland/Odessa area. A tree there is a sacred thing. Nothing but a few mesquites grow naturally in the Permian Basin.

Most folks here will think I'm lying when I mention a west Texas town named "Notrees". Back me up on that one, will 'ya? ldskule:

 

I've eaten there a few times (not in Dallas) and always thought they were inexpensive.

 

I wouldn't trade my oaks for anything.
