5-21-2008 @7:25PM Frances Magbual said... It must not have been dandelions. When I took the quiz there were no dandelions! Unfortunately, I still missed five questions for 15/20.

Happy spring!

BUT you have an artichoke listed under these veggies and a photo of one as a lead in, artichokes are NOT a vegetable,they are a flower.My last name is Carciofi which means artichoke in Italian. When I was young and in school I was sent to the principal's more than once for "correcting" the teacher.
