As sad as it may seem I had never been introduced to a pomegranate until Sunday. I went to my mother-in-laws house and she had one cracked open and was just munching away on those red, juicy seed. I guess it's a seed. Well, I broke one away from the white membrane that keeps the seeds in place and I fell in love.
Days before I had watched Martha Stewart on her new show talking about pomegranates and how much she loved them. I was amazed. I knew I had to get my hands on one.
What is awesome is that JD loves them too. I love that he will eat anything.
I found a great website that is full of great recipes, trivia and other facts about pomegranates. Click here to check it out.

Hi.. I'm sure pomegranates are good and sweet, but I just can't get passed how they look! I'm weird like that: If it doesn't look half way appetizing then I won't eat it. For example avocados!... Anyway, maybe I can prepare a dessert with my eyes closed! Great blog... SAHMs UNITED!
