Easiest way to remember the difference: 1. Did you *pick* it off a stem on the plant? Usually a fruit (or a legume - peas and beans). 2. Did you *dig* it up or *pull* it off the plant? Usually a vegetable.<br /><br />I learned all this not from books but from planting and gardening. Doing is the best teaching method!J F Norrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06473487417479127354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-40306015191594417192012-08-29T11:25:03.803-04:002012-08-29T11:25:03.803-04:00See, Ryan?

I like the sound of the mystery and I like any book that informs unwary consumers on the difference between a fruit and a vegetable. By the way, for it to be a fruit, the seeds have to be on the inside.Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17786139533776263328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-19398202564073338782012-08-28T12:55:43.115-04:002012-08-28T12:55:43.115-04:00Now that IS a coincidence, John.

Sounds like you and Joe had a great time.<br /><br />Check out the list of books in this series, John.

We did some hiking and climbing (and I won some money in a casino!). A truly gorgeous place with stunning views on the mountain trails. I remember it being THE destination for all game show winning contestants. Prizes used to be given away by the truckful for trips to "beautiful LAKE TAHOE!" (to be said in your best Johnny Owens voice) Now I know why. I'd definitely be wiling to read a mystery series set there.

McKenna seems like a nice guy: I like reading about good people doing good things in a book, mystery or otherwise. Thanks for the link to Todd Borg's list of books.Prashant C.
