Game: This or That

[tailor STATELY]

Asparagus hands down... it spargels !!! The San Joaquin Asparagus Festival (Stockton, California) was a few weeks ago

Othello (the board game) or Backgammon ?

[bounty]

asparagus in a quick victory!

did you partake in the festival?

there is a nearby village here that has a somewhat famous garlic festival every year but ive never gone. maybe this year...

backgammon

in the last quarter final bout of the tournament, another couple of vegetable giants----tomatoes vs peppers!

[tailor STATELY]

Never on asparagus festival... even when I lived in Stockton I've been to the Garlic Festival in Gilroy, California though

Tomatoes

Monopoly or Battleship ?

[bounty]

i think if asparagus wins the tournament tailor, going to the festival has to be on your bucket list!

I recently inherited a couple of cans of asparagus. have you ever had it on pizza?

that's a tougher one---but monopoly. although I like the movie battleship.

into the veggie final four:

cauliflower vs brussels sprouts

Asparagus festival has been on my list for some time On pizza? mais non. My idea of toppings is prolly the antithesis of what you have in mind... and hopefully counterbalances those pesky carbohydrates with my fantasy all meat pizza (sans fishies)

Brussels sprouts

Stratego or Monopoly ?

[bounty]

the expiration date on the cans is 2026, and I don't have a problem eating canned food for 2-3 afterwards, so ive got a good 4-5 yrs to figure out how to eat it.

how about asparagus and rice?

hmmm, I like stratego a lot, but still monopoly.

and in the bottom half of the vegetable final four----the aforementioned asparagus against the very popular perennial all-star, tomatoes!

[tailor STATELY]

Throw some canned asparagus into a "cream of ___" soup maybe

Asparagus!

Golf or Frisbee golf ?

[bounty]

oh that's a good idea, I like that. I just bought bunches of crackers too so I need to eat those up before they go stale. maybe I wont wait 5 yrs and i'll give it a shot in the next few days. i'll let you know.

I used to really like miniature golf, but that has suffered from the same fate as board games, no one to play with. ive only genuinely golfed once in my lifetime, despite growing up in the neighborhood of the local country club. apparently you have to belong to the club to use the course, go figure!

frisbee golf it is! I was at a park once somewhere playing, NC maybe, where they had a formal course and enjoyed that. more successful technique, less slicing and hooking and missed balls and no divots.

a surprise winner, moving on to the finals but first, the consolation match between:

tomatoes vs cauliflower.

[tailor STATELY]

... tough one: Tomatoes are in soooo many things; they're like the Leatherman of vegetables... going with tomatoes

Leatherman multi-tool or Swiss Army knife ?
